Have spoken with a lot of people about the incoming bans on social media in Australia, and the viewpoint seems to be—
1. They're not actually doing that are they?
2. There's no technical way to do that
3. If they do that I won't comply
4. If they make me comply I'll do a workaround
5. They're not going to enforce it anyway
That's either a hopeful viewpoint, or sleepwalking.
Nostr is well positioned as it seems to be incompatible with the legislation as I understand it.

TY! I can't fault your thinking. And also, Telegram also has this nested pattern, see e.g. Nostr Relay Ops Collective on TG.

All roads are leading to "relay is community"

2024-11-05 09:24:04

- reply

If this pattern were to take off I can see power-user centric apps for relay admin sitting alongside client apps. Which would be pretty cool for power users, and super interesting in organisational contexts.
How to you admin the whitelist? Are you editing flat files in code?
Do any relays have API endpoints for configuration which an admin app could build upon (add whitelist npubs, words, etc)?

2024-11-05 09:17:37

Yet to try this but it sounds like a very cool and useful approach to crafting your own feed. TLDR, push the curation to the relay, run a dumb client.

- reply

Thanks! For clarity I was mostly thinking about the UI pattern in your client app. E.g. if my community currently in Slack has multiple "channels", I can replace Slack with a relay, and the channels with NIP-29 groups, but there may need a visual hierarchy of "Relay>Group" or at least a grouping of Relay1Group1,2,3,Relay2Group1,2,3, etc.
Just musing. Trying to figure out the correct pattern

This looks awesome. I am thinking on these lines for Fishburners startup community. I wonder.
Could it handle one relay with multiple NIP-29 groups inside?

Is it just a matter of time for devs to implement in clients? Or is it a matter of users choosing the right message or relay type?

Edit, NIP-72, not 71

2024-10-30 10:38:53

Have we thought through relays as communities vs the other community NIPs, like NIP-71 and NIP-29?
For example, if I'm moderating my relay, do I also host a NIP-71 community on the relay, or is that redundant?

I've flip-flopped on this a couple of times since we last spoke and I'm back to agreeing with you. Did you see Fiatjafs implementation here? You can use the whole nostter(.)app for a single relay, as if the whole app is a community-specific-client.

- reply

I'm not forgetting, I'm just ignorant!
Backlog and batch sign?
Doing signing on the card was the first place I looked. I found secp256k1 seemed poorly supported on yubi and other platforms. Maybe wrong.
Also, NFC cards are very cheap.
Thinking of ways to get 100's and 1,000's of users onboarded cheaply without them being able to stuff up and leak their keys.

2024-10-21 05:37:19

- reply

If I am a user who want to access a team or community relay (e.g. Team Relay or Ditto), that relay is going to look for my npub to be defined in the domain's well-known, but I don't think they also need to find a corroborating event on the network. And if not, then that's interesting and is slightly different from the way NIP-05 seems to be assumed to work.

2024-10-21 05:29:14

I think I just worked out a new signing workflow.
We can approximate an offline signer using an NFC card that holds an nsec.
Design a nsecbunker, and delegate signing to the bunker, but populate the bunker with a transient nsec, similar to Amethyst transient login.
Client asks bunker for signature. Bunker requests NFC tap in order to get the nsec. On tap, bunker applies the password, signs the event, and then forgets the nsec.
Required to trust the bunker software, but if the bunker gets hacked, or device gets compromised, it does not possess the key.
Thoughts?

2024-10-15 21:05:49

Relays as a cloud sync service for any arbitrary data, between devices.
Guaranteed persistent cloud storage not required.
Users don't need to know or care that Nostr is the transit lawyer.
Crosses the chasm.

Thanks! Habla looks very good for reading but I struggled with the editor a bit. I found it not intuitive to write in syntax mode and then have to toggle to preview to see the effects. Maybe user error?
Highlighter seemed better in that you can edit in preview mode but has a few other bugs in the editor when you try to include web or Nostr links.
Today I stumbled upon using Obsidian with a Nostr plugin. Looks promising. I plan to try that next.
Do you use Habla exclusively or other things too?

Niel are there clients out there now that allow users to treat relays in this way?
I'm loosely aware that anyone can choose to treat a relay that way already. So, I'm guessing it's the client UX is the main hurdle?

2024-10-06 10:59:43

Relays as communities also aligns with team relays for companies and organizations and with relays for individuals. One person or many people you have a relay for your needs.

Awesome. I think I've been missing the auto complete from my workflow entirely. And, I certainly didn't realize I could specify different models for different uses contemporaneously.
I'm thinking of all kinds of other async uses cases where speed is a non-issue too. Anything agentic, anything backlogged. Lots of scope

2024-10-05 22:06:25

- reply

Melvin did I also hear of the idea of a proxy relay? Where you connect your client to your own relay, where that relay is just pulling and storing events from your longer list of other relays?
So rather than 1:many it's 1:1:many
Would that also allow users to get notes from the network in an async way?
(I need to study ditto more)

Yes NIP-89 can solve the super app vs micro app problem. Every client can be a micro app. The network itself is the super app.
