What's @npub10las...0ywa and the #Olas365 challenge? Olas is a Nostr-powered alternative to Instagram by @PABLOF7z. The focus is on community, creativity, and real value for value exchanges, instead of doomscrolling, advertisements, and ever changing algorithms that you'll find on Meta's platform. If you've wanted "Nostrgram" or Nostr for Instagram, it's here. The #Olas365 challenge is simple, really. To participate in the challenge, all you need to do is post one image daily throughout 2025. The goal is to have fun and promote creativity, all the while creating a rich repository of content on Olas for all to enjoy. To get started, you're going to need to download and install the Olas app on your phone as https://olas.app is not ready for posting just yet. Here are the links: Android: or download from @Zapstore iOS: When posting on Olas, be sure to select the 'high quality post' option. This will allow the images to be posted via the new kind:20 image type, adding them to the "Olas feed" or "Olas Gallery" in other Nostr supported apps! At this time, these applications include: Amethyst, Nostrudel, and Nostur (soon Primal)! Please remember that Olas is still very early and bugs do exist! i.e. On Android, some UI issues exist with formatting on comments, the user profile, the settings page, and several places where dialog boxes have issues with dark mode. iOS seems to be fairly solid in terms of UI.

Important for new users to know: You can use many apps at once with nostr. You can login to Damus and Olas and any other apps you want, your content is not siloed with a specific app. If you already have a nostr client you like, no problem, you can use both simultaneously. Your nostr data is stored in the network, not the app.
They will appear inside the 'Gallery' of your Amethyst profile and also in the 'Media feed' on Amethyst. The Olas image style is supported by many clients, showcasing them in their main feeds or in dedicated sections. If you don't want them to show up, you could use a different set of keys/different profile. Some people have different profiles for different things.
Very interesting; why do you not want these posts to show up in your amethyst profile? Iโ€™m very curious about your use case ๐Ÿ˜Š
Always wipes it You have the option to add a geotag to the event for later when I add search by geographic region. The geotag precision is reduced to between 600 to 800 meters. But yeah, the exif metadata is always wiped locally before uploading anything.
Could a slider or something for possitional resolution be a thing? Perhaps with rough markers like 'precise, city, province, country, continent' markers? How hard would it on the other end to interpret/handle all those various sized strings. If that is too difficult to manage, you'd have to compare to some list of 'locations' with coordinates for cities, provinces etc, though it would result in weird clusters of stuff all being in 1 particular location which could look weird. Ok im done thinking about this, nvm
Yes, it's definitely possible, I've got it on my todo list to put a slider that allows changing the level of precision.

I've been reposting, predominantly, on Amethyst and I wouldn't want my Olas posts to interfere with that narrative. But since Derek says they'll appear in 'gallery' and 'media', which I never look at, and is not the default 'notes' view on Amethyst profile, that would satisfy my need to separate the two worlds. Would Olas display Amethyst reposts?

So, it would be like Iโ€™m using the same app, but Iโ€™m simply entering a different workshop to accomplish my task?

it would be like logging in to gmail and hotmail and seeing the same e-mail in both placed, synchronized
