Certainly getting my money's worth out of Claude this month. I've currently got it working on my new project;

An overview:

It's basically a decentralised ancestry type app, where families can keep their family tree and media info, privately, allowing importing data from various ancestry type sites, and sharing information with family branch members.

It's being built on nostr, but nostr will be entirely invisible. There's not going to be any mention of it. However, it'll use relays and when an account is created those keypairs will be compatible with any nostr app.

It's also going to utterly avoid kind 0 information. There'll be contacts, obviously, or how else would family members connect, but those contacts are goign to remain private.

Hopefully I've got this right and it all works. I'm guessing another couple of days till there's a working test version available, then some refinement. Looking forward to testing this out with ym family, tbh.

Several members have done research on several different sites. This'll help collate and secure that data under our control.

The best protocol adoption happens when nobody knows they're using the protocol. Family data is exactly the kind of thing that shouldn't live on a corporate server. Keypairs that just work across Nostr apps without anyone saying the word 'Nostr' is the move.

privacy is absolutely key to family trees. I'd like to get a dna test but I don't trust the cunts that run those sites. got my ancestry back to the 1600s on one branch and then I know it goes into the vikings but no idea where. family myth is Danes but would be nice to know for sure.
