I love the idea of URLs with nostr entities and inline relay hints.
This type of URL syntax also models nostr architecture very well. Instead of specifying a host location and then the desired resource like most URLs, we specify the desired resource, and then the host locations where that could be found, which is exactly the architectural paradigm shift that defines Nostr
We probably want to double-check RFC 3986 to help define some of the details.
For example, we probably want to use “nostr:” instead of “nostr://“ because the “//“ denotes an “authority” (Section 3.2) that controls the namespace of the remainder of the URL, which would not be the case since the protocol would define the meaning of the query parameters.
Furthermore, I am not sure if we can repeat keys on the query parameters, and if it would be compatible with most URL parsing libraries. Section 3.4 of the spec doesn’t seem to forbid it, but might be good to test with major libraries. If not, maybe comma separated values on the relay hints could work as well
cc @npub1ye5…knpr I think this type of URL syntax would work well on Blossom too

Hi @npub1qds…gfw3 The translation feature only activates for languages that are not configured as a preferred language in iOS.
You can check and modify your preferred language settings in the iOS settings app > General > Language & Region > Preferred Languages
I believe it’s possible that adding an international keyboard might have also added that language as a preferred language automatically, but you should be able to tweak those iOS settings independently (e.g. I have a Japanese keyboard on mine, but I have removed Japanese from my preferred languages list)

Shouldn’t be, which iOS device are you using?

NextCloud is a nice way to get a “cloud-like” experience on a home server you control. It has a familiar UI that makes it a nice choice if you want to help onboard a family member or friend who is less technical into your home server.
Unfortunately, I find many setups and tutorials to be non-ideal (e.g. Missing HTTPS support, unclear configuration, spread-out data, lack of backups, etc).
So I wrote a guide that (I believe) solves a lot of these issues. If you are looking to improve your NextCloud setup, this might be an interesting read!
https://homeserver.guide/Doing+cool+stuff/Setting+up+NextCloud+on+NixOS+with+HTTPS%2C+Tailscale%2C+and+backups

Thank you for sharing that, I see what is probably causing the issue.

If you are just getting started setting up a personal home server with a Raspberry Pi or some PC, one very useful thing to setup is SSH, so that you can control it remotely from your laptop or PC.
I made a small tutorial on how to set it up, and some extra tips!
I also wrote it as a written guide here: https://homeserver.guide/Basics/Setup+SSH+to+manage+your+home-server+remotely
BTW, I am planning to make more educational videos and guides around Home Servers and Freedom Tech in general! What would you like to learn next?

Thanks @npub14qz…2q26! From your description, I believe you were running a version that had no Purple expiry notifications at the time.
@npub1xts…kk5s, the latest version on that TestFlight group was 1.7 (11) (Probably around commit `ab529c43`), which seems to be before the Purple expiry notification feature was introduced (in `3569919e`)
@npub14qz…2q26, as for the issues with the TestFlight link, I believe you might be on the older TestFlight group, which we recently migrated from. Can you please try logging into https://damus.io/purple/account/ and clicking “Join TestFlight” on your account page (if you haven’t tried it yet)?

@npub1zaf…26k5, I am not 100% familiar with the details of mute-lists, but I believe they are often stored in a special kind of Nostr event, so it should be generally interoperable, but yeah, there might be some specific detail that is causing this issue
