We already have everything we need for decentralized video hosting. We just need upload services to support variable bitrate streaming and we can improve video playback performance in nostr clients by 100x

Centralization of video has always been a terrible idea, but we have the tech to fix it.

Dude, Youtube is cracking down hard and it's insanely frustrating. My go to for YEARS for getting video and audio pulled from youtube in order to make clips, transcribe, use found footage, etc has just stopped working, It's all throwing back errors. Legacy platforms are literall Show more

Blossom is a great starting point for transitioning away from centralized URLs on mobile.

nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 has been leading us out of this darkness

Do you recommend any streaming clients? Zap Stream? Flare? Corny Chat? Any others I haven't yet heard of?

I hope we'll see this evolve around nostr. Kieran is already looking into supporting multi-track streaming on Zapstream. It's a new feature in the latest OBS build but the server needs to support enhanced rtmp.

zap.stream https://zap.stream/ obviously still in its infancy but i found it easy to use. im not sure why more arent using it, especially those who complain about youtube. you can really just start by uploading / streaming to both with little bother.

You can have the tech but do you have the means to make content creators profit with it?

And that will be amazing.

Right now, I self host all of my own video that I share here… And I’m fine with that, but I would not consider an optimal solution..

Am I sensing NIP-?? for video notes incoming? The only thing with video is that at the larger data size, some kind of financials need to be figured out for the economics to make sense.

I hope we can do this soon. Paying in sats for streaming is a great feature. Needs to be integrated into clients

cant wait for this to become a reality
