still on my localhost; very much and development 😅 but really good progress today; I'll probably will package it tomorrow and pray to the google chrome store gods for approval 🤦‍♂️ (not really, but I'll try to distribute it via the chrome store)
it'll be a PWA but I'll try to submit it via the App Store too. Zaps are not integral to the experience of using the highlighter mobile app, so if it becomes contentious I can skip them on the app store version
🧡 the chrome extension is basically ready, couple of bugs to fix and I'll package it up for tomorrow
It will. Integrating nostr with obsidian was my very first nostr-related idea

The fact that more and more apps built on Nostr is treating it like a public key based remotestorage.io is a good sign. If DWNs didn't really suck at shipping, they might have became the standard for per-user backends already, but here we are. Nostr was designed to be a Twitter alternative and made a lot of sacrifices to reach that, and the nsecbunker (giving your key to a server) is a clear sign of that, it devolves publickeys into a server owned identity. Let's try again with more focus on local-first apps and proper key management.

very nice. I saw twitter with the highlight feature too for subscribers. I'm not sure when they started. Same concept ?
Highlight event is stored independently with a reference to the site, so if the site goes offline or changes nothing changes the original highlight
