Today I'm launching Flare, a video sharing site built on Nostr! 🎉

Like YouTube, Flare lets you upload, view, comment, and like videos from your favorite creators. BUT unlike YouTube, we can't strike, shadow-ban, or demonetize you just because we disagree 🤗

Since Flare is built on Nostr, you are free to serve your content from anywhere and consume content from any kind 34235 client you'd like.

Check it out at https://www.flare.pub/ 🔥

Im noticing lots of people are asking high quality questions about this on Hacker News. Might be worth while to engage with those 😅 ?

Looks great. I wanted to try it, so I paid 10,000 sats. It still won't let me upload anything. What am I doing wrong? Using Firefox+Alby here. https://image.nostr.build/f7168c0f2ab949143c1c54efe0db5b25f0654627a1ff40ef4120ca58cc409cc6.jpg

Hey nostr:npub1zach44xjpc4yyhx6pgse2cj2pf98838kja03dv2e8ly8lfr094vqvm5dy5 — this is amazing. Will users be able to host videos on home servers at some point? Using AWS seems like a very dangerous solution for a platform like this.

Very nice work! How is this different/better than peertube?

How long should it take from paying for storage till you can upload something? I paid through the upload mechanism, but nothing happened and if I try to upload it asks me to pay again...?

Now we're talking! Two comments. First, looks like the views are not registering on the videos. The latest one from Fractal Bitcoin has four likes, but no views. Something's broken there. Second, instead of having to upload a video manually to your servers, could we drop an IPFS link to a video t...

Great effort but could you please comment this opinion: "Flare isn’t the Nostr solution you think it is" https://simplifiedprivacy.com/flare/ Flare.pub is supposed to be a decentralized video app for Nostr It is unclear how Flare prevents Flare itself from deleting your videos, as Nostr’s pro...
