Here is a zap of 2100 sats. You can buy some Nostr arround the corner
How can one self host blossom servers on nostr:npub1aghreq2dpz3h3799hrawev5gf5zc2kt4ch9ykhp9utt0jd3gdu2qtlmhct ?
Slide into my DMs and I'll hook you up
Will those slides be available via nostr?
I'm not familiar with Blossom servers, but I know they're used to serve media from for Nostr. In the slide it mentions distributed blobs. Does this means it uses the bitTorrent protocol?
Blossom servers are normal webservers with prefifned endpoints. Files are stored and accessed using their sha256 hash (as filename).
If you then upload a picture and reference it in you nostr post for example. People can fetch that image not just from the server you referenced but from any other blossom server that holds a copy of the file.
And because the filename is the hash you can guarantee that the file hasn't been meddled with (malware) by a server you get it from.
So no, BitTorrent is not involved and it's not a peer-to-peer system.
I'm not aware of a umbrel package with blossom. If you're technical enough you could run portainer and run one as a docker container manually.
Sadly, not technical enough (sounds like gibberish 😅)
I know that nostr:npub1ye5ptcxfyyxl5vjvdjar2ua3f0hynkjzpx552mu5snj3qmx5pzjscpknpr was talking about some kind of solution for it on nostr:npub1n00yy9y3704drtpph5wszen64w287nquftkcwcjv7gnnkpk2q54s73000n the other day …
Maybe we get it soon enough for non technicals like me 💜🙃
That is interesting. Thank you for explaining. Is it a cdn-like setup with caching?
https://20251101.nostrver.se will work
Cool! 🤙
Yes, you get a bit into semantics here but my view of it is that blossom is the procol that by its nature allows easy formation of a CDN.
It's unlike legacy CDNs (like CloudFlare) where you need to trust one large party.
Caching and saving in blossom are the same, really. You can keep all videos/images you watch on nostr for 2 weeks and then drop them. In the meantime you can allow friends/family to load the files from your blossom instead of the original poster which might be on the other side of the world...
