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 πŸ‘ from Primal, the note in Amethyst has 2 πŸ‘, from me. I don't get that. Well there are some of my questions. πŸ˜… 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 don’t 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 I’m unsure of caps.

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. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arthur.hritik.proton.video.compressor
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.
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.
