Thanks to the whole team. ❤️
Funny thing though is I had to visit my own profile too to get it stored in nostrdb 😅. Might want to consider adding user’s own profile by default.
This is awesome, thank you Will 🤙 Most excited about the video issues fixed and to see where nostrdb goes.
There seems to be an issue when encountering new profile in reply and trying to go to it. It goes there and nothing loading for a while, going back and clicking on yet another new profile that I am not following or seen, it freezes and I cannot do anything but quit Damus and start it again. iOS 17.0.1 latest Damus TF 🐶🐾🫡
Love the changes, but my profile picture and bio switched back to an old version when I updated on TestFlight. I reverted back to the App Store version and resolved it. Just a heads up.
A big issue right now is that notes are processed twice and are still stored in memory. So there is lots of cpu and memory waste at the moment. Next step is to remove all the swift note processing code and use nostrdb for everything.
Another thing I still need to add is stats processing. When likes are received, we can store like and zap counts in nostrdb so that stats are always up to date on every note.
sorry I am not upto date here. I have a small doubt. would other nostr clients be able to use NostrDB or is it for damus only?
It will eventually implement nip01 so you can talk to it like a relay. For now its just an API

Can’t seem to delete relays? Button doesn’t respond regardless of using edit, or swiping on a relay?
