View quoted note → I'm still alive. Wasted some time trying to rewrite Iris from scratch. Now working iteratively from the old codebase. New version at https://beta.iris.to/ has Vite build tools and Tailwind CSS, so it's easier to develop going forward. Almost ready to deploy, then back to sirius business I hope. Contributions welcome. Now heading to Nummirock to enjoy the midsummer 😎

Greetings from Repovesi National Park, Finland

Most of the basic features now done at https://new.iris.to . Still need to improve content loading (let's see if

Images look great on a black background.

So many "10 insane ChatGPT tricks you must know" threads in my Twitter feed.

Rebuilding the Iris user interface on Tailwind and modern build tools: https://new.iris.to/ Currently it's Iris only on the surface, no web of trust or other characteristic features yet. The code is forked from https://nostribe.com — thanks to @Sep ! Much easier to work with than the old Iris codebase. Also thanks to @brugeman for the nostr.band trending API and @Adam Ritter | rbr.bio for https://rbr.bio/ API and relays. If you'd like to help with the rewrite, you can submit pull requests here (no bug reports please 😆) :

TIL: David Bowie song "Cat People", which is heard in Inglourious Basterds, is originally from a 1982 movie Cat People. Seems like a quality movie and very Tarantinoesque. https://www.imdb.com/video/vi4213096217

Finally added zap invoice parsing and total zap amounts 😅

Just made Iris use only the "name" field from profile. The concept of "username" can be a bit confusing in the context of Nostr, because it's not globally unique, and can be confused with nip05 addresses. "Nickname" or "alias" would be better, but probably not necessary. Also the UI is simpler and prettier when you don't display a "username" separately. View quoted note →

Full width on non-threaded messages. Images and long texts look better now.

Grid view gallery now shows the note content on desktop.

Added nevent & nprofile support and changed #[n] mentions to nostr: format. Recently merged another great pull request by @npub1zenn...p3st which adds an "Event Details" modal that shows "seen on" relays and raw event data.

2 separate things in this, but didn't bother splitting prs: Smaller thing: only subscribe to enabled relays in PubSub.ts. I am pretty sure the...

Made a deepl.com based auto-translate. Works, but it's insane expensive. Scroll down the feed, +0.20 € 😄 Probably can't provide it as a part of Iris subscription without some very selective caching. I wonder if deepl.com terms of use would allow a translate.iris.to proxy that users would give their personal API keys, but it would first check for a cached translation.
