Anyone used Quiet? It’s a p2p privacy focused messaging app that rubs over tor. nostr:note16y9wlehkh53tf72zq8rm0qrlv83t9nx5k23fkl8vg8rryufujykst5czcw

Hmmm I find this part the most intriguing:

"Syncing: IPFS and OrbitDB, an IPFS-based CRDT, ensure that all data (messages, user data, etc) syncs between peers with eventual consistency.

Asynchronous messaging: because messages sync to all members, members can communicate without being contemporaneously online, provided that there is "continuous liveness", a continuous chain of online peers who each sync the latest updates, between the sender and the recipient."

This kind of sounds like how Scuttlebutt works, but using IPFS+OrbitDB so perhaps the performance would be much better?

I need to level up my visual design skills. Came across some amazing looking websites that blew my mind and I have no idea how they made them.

Andrew @Andrew 1713598672

Which sites?

note1je0an...

Andrew @Andrew 1713021853

It's a one-way bridge? Nostr replies can't be seen in the fediverse can they?

Andrew @Andrew 1711104807

not yet nope. but Threads said the next phase is enabling 2-way

Wait this is a shortcoming of Threads or mostr.pub? What about other accounts that mostr.pub mirrors, do they go both ways? Does my nostr npub somehow have its mirror twin in the fediverse?

🤣🤣 It’s a fake account Derek

Andrew @Andrew 1711062442

Nah it's real! It's his threads account bridged to nostr through mostr.pub

Do you know how to tell this isn’t just a fake account / bot that said the same thing?

If damus relay and nostr.build were nuked tomorrow, what % of nostr would instantly vanish? 🤔

Andrew @Andrew 1711014268

Nuking nostr.build would be way more noticeable, it seems like the vast majority of images posted on nostr are hosted there.

I really wish IPFS or WebTorrent were more performant, would be a great way to decentralize image hosting so that users who have loaded the image can seed it to others who wish to load it.

In the meantime, a stepping stone towards fully decentralized images on nostr could be if more clients + relays implemented NIP-95 to allow images to be directly sent to relays and distributed that way.
