I guess I'm one of those #vtubers.
Having fun talking about general topics, vrchat/similar, and games. Also #indiedev #gamedev. You can call me: Freak فْرِيكٌ フリク (still learning Nihongo).
Making: DEG Mods, DEGA, DNN, DENOS

ok, DNN IDs/TLDs are now:
n{Word}{Word}{n}{Letter(s)} > example: nAbilityZooKD
instead of
n{3Letters}{Letter}{n}{Word(s)} > example: nABCeAbsurd
Updated the forked browser to be able to parse this new encoding.
Also updated/expanded the Awarenes DB to be more rebust for moderation marking (of a domain or a whole TLD is spam/scam/malware or adult, so OSs and/or browsers can optionally filter them out. (Untested).
I've also impleneted NIP-SHORT i shared some time back, to shorten nostr event addresses, on the fork of jumble, check out this example short link:

I've posted an initial draft of NIP-NSP (Nostr Silent Payments) to be implemented at a later date (this is just the first draft, and it'll most likely be heavily modified):
Now I need to fix the my signer's nip-46, and give more attention to the discord alt soltuion.

DNN - A decentralized, Bitcoin-anchored naming system for nostr and the web.
Considering how I figured out how to improve NIP17's privacy, as well as reduce the number of events for it, both at the cost of removing cold-DMs, I'm wondering if we can still have cold-DMs with current nip17 spec, but decrease the spam attack surface.
Adding a POW score threshold info in my kind:0 (for me to even fetch your DM from relays, it must pass this difficult level)
DNN ID could also be a thing (for me to even fetch your DM, you must have a DNN ID), an indication that you spent some money
Both could be used at the same time as well.
I'm also thinking, considering my previous posts about receiving money to a npub = (you must send me X amount of money before I can add you to my contact list so we can start DMing each other privately)
Dunno, but POW score is a good start i'd say =3
Is DEG Mods the only nostr client that handles media like text posts in regards to censorship-resistance?
In DEG Mods, it has a system/flow set in place where when an image (or any file) gets uploaded, it tries to upload said image/file to multiple blossom servers, and logs the sources, then does a hash check on fetch/download to verify authenticity.
Meaning: If a source/host deletes an image/file, the system would try to find the image/file on other blossom servers and fetches it when found, then hashes what it found and match-check it with the hash address in the link.
From what I can see, most nostr clients upload an image once and there is know scan/search function or hash check?
If no or few clients do this, then this is something that must be changed. When I have time (and when i remember x3) i'll add tickets to nostr client repos to add suchs systems/flows to acheive media censorship/failure/maliciousness resistance (or at least try to), or hopefully others publish those tickets instead.
I figured out how to improve Silent Payments on Bitcoin (the huge processing that needs to be done to know if you received funds or not).
Also figured out a Silent Payment style method but for your npub, also without that huge processing problem, and for multiple cryptos / not just bitcoin (only chains with secp256k1, so sadly monero can't be part of this, unless i or someone else can figure out a way to make it work).
Assuming I didn't miss anything or misunderstood something, i figured out:
A multi-chain, low-overhead, Nostr-native stealth payment protocol.
One nPub = private receive address for multiple currencies.
Won't work on it now, later, since I gotta do other stuff.
Privacy, anonymity, etc, are things that aren't available and aren't practiced by the 99% (or more) of people, and you can't make those people move towards privacy and anonymity and so on, to make them as proffecient as the 1% or 0.1% that know how to be private, be anonymous, be as free as possible. That's the reality of things.
So what can be done? Make products, goods and services, tools, etc, that are so good and market it and conduct business in a way that it will become mainstream, where those products makes it so that their users are, in effect, as close as possible to being private/anonymous/etc as the 1%/0.1% of those users that care about these things.
Want the majority to start using your awesome nostr app that has the best privacy, security, anonymity, freedom in the market? Then make it the best possible app out there that out-values all of its competitors, with better marketing, as well as have as many good business deals/partnerships as possible, to achieve that highest possible adoption rate and overtake the market.
This is REALLY hard, but that's what must be done to achieve the awesome results we want, the reality we want and not the hell reality we're in or going into.
'just use IRC'
'build on top of IRC'
'i started to build an alt with IRC'
A lot of people want a discord alt built on top of IRC, not knowing... they'd face the same issues discord already has, regardless of feature-parity.
IRC is neat, but doesn't solve the core problems.
UK-style headaches coming for everyone now on discord.
Seems like I actually need to start making that discord alt, even if barebones/rough, shit is getting worse and worse faster than expected.
