The way data is being lost when the client is opened, will this be improved in the future?
Which data are you referring to?
internet data
When it comes to videos:
How many MB can I upload max or how many minutes?
There are "NIP-96" servers and "Blossom Servers" and "Built-in media servers " - I m referring to Amethyst setup for example - is there any guide what to use and how? What each server of all those do differently? Does it matter who owns them?
There are a lot of paid "services", nostr.build, nostr.wine etc. Subscribing to them does it make any difference in the experience of accessing nostr clients? You can upload more and lengthy content if you subscribe to nostr.build for example or does it serve only as a cloud to store your content?
I m mostly use primal (because it's easier) but when I m giving a "thumbs up" on Amethyst, this doesn't appear on Primal, so when I give π from Primal, the note in Amethyst has 2 π, from me. I don't get that.
Well there are some of my questions. π
I don't like to overload.
I dont think there is any cap on videos on primal but I could be wrong best to ask @primal
Most free video services are capped in file size. I think nostr build integrated with some clients and allow up to 4mb file sizes - or maybe they increased that? I donβt remember. Paid nostr.build plan does allow for much larger file sizes.
In terms of blossom servers I think those are mostly demo. Primal does have one but Iβm unsure of caps.
I don't think that blossom is running as demo. Primal uses them as default.
100mb on Nostr build
Oh dang
I think primal has the same limit for free uploads too. With the right compression you can fit a fairly large video into 100mb.
For videos make sure to compress them and you'll get a lot more time. Two good options on Android.
FF share - open source, more options, lower compression generally.
Proton video compressor - closed source, not s lot of options, maximum compression. I've seen 100mb videos to down to 1-2mb with this one.

Thanks! I didn't know those apps!
Excuse me I will ask also this:
In the country that I m currently living there is no Nostr relay.
How to set up one so there are notes only in the native language, I mean can be "IP specific" relays?
Are there any services to "provide" this setup and are there any ready made filters to exclude porn material for example or if I set one relay I have to check every note myself? If this is how it's working. I don't really know.
Great questions! I donβt know the answer but @cloud fodder might be able to answer and or help!
is this the best place on the internet? π«Ά
Possibly ;)
New on Nostr and really enjoying it so far. No questions yet

Whatβs the best way to integrate lightning wallets across platforms?
You just have to add it once to your profile and itβll show up everywhere. Primal might be a bit different and Damus since they also both have built in wallet partners. If you already got a ln address through either one, you might still be able to set your own.

Oh I m sorry, and this is the last one.
I installed this Citrine app on my phone, because I saw it somewhere discussed, but I don't know what to do with it. What is its use.
Thanks π
I take it Primal is emulating the Twitter platform. So are their other Nostr platforms that serve another purpose, like emulating Instagram or Substack? And which has the biggest audience?
Yes, there are a ton of βother stuffβ clients. We have kind of crappy versions of many π€£
Zap.stream is the best example I think of other stuff - in this case streaming!
Nostrapps.com has an OK list of things to explore.
I donβt think we have a good Substack replacement, I wish we did - @PABLOF7z started on something like that at one point but I have no idea what happened to it. Thereβs highlighter.com too but I havenβt tried it in a while.
I just created openux.app which looks nothing like nostr social apps but uses relays and events under the hood.
But yeah there are hundreds of things to try!
Another one Iβll plug: Kinostr.com for movies πΏ
Welcome to all new #nostriches (people who use #Nostr). Check out njump.me and nstart.me (both written by fiatjaf, Creator of the nostr protocol) when you have the time.
I'm the odd bunch who frequents nostr by deleting account/logging out and tying one public key to my frequent postings. Is there a way to amplify this privacy by allowing rotating keys (i.e disallowing duplicate key re-usage) so I don't need to pull the delete/logout n signup again plug each time? I plan to lurk but do my part as pseudo-anon helping grow things there possible yet do not feel comfortable nor trivially attach to followers(ik it helps algos but idc about it) or zapping (yet). I understand this would be hard if not anti-thesis to primal n other clients, who are moving towards curated premium subscription models. Do such clients exist? Tired of using primal lmao guess I'm projecting
I designed such a thing but it was not implemented in any client as far as I know - the main concern was spam.
Just joined today, Still trying to understand about lightning network and Verified Nostr Address (NIP-05)...
might set these up properly later, right now just want to see how the network is compared to other X. βοΈ
Donβt worry about nip-5 nostr address.
What questions do you have about lightning?
Compared to X? On #nostr no one can censor your posts or delete your account. Yes, here you now have complete Freedom of Speech, which no other socmed on Earth can offer you. How does that sound?
I've been here for months, never get replies. Don't know why. I follow a bunch of people and subjects, I put # on most of my comments and nothing. No interaction. I do appreciate the information tho. and us old folks need a step by step instruction on how to create zaps. Haven't the foggiest how to even start the process. I left Gab a few months a go and most times Nostr doesn't cut the amount of info I was getting on Gab...but now gab is full of folks from X who are such pro-Trumper normies I would never go back (much less what I found out about Torba) but here, it seems a better way, on ramp to more news and global comments would be nice.
