I wonder how I could do that
Maybe I can update it so that when you use the search term “nostr” you get results for other relevant terms like “ostriches”?
Ultimately the best way would be to upload nostr gifs and caption them
Then once we build up enough of a repository for that key term then I could just search nostr.build instead of Tenor
I’ll think on it more

I see, so it's a static website hosted on AWS S3 server; makes sense why it's so cheap
I've used S3 buckets for file storage, but not for web hosting
It says it's best for websites without server-side scripting; I have some python scripts running server side with each "click to copy" action
Do you think that'll be a problem?

There have been a couple comments in my feed from people expecting to paste a nostr.build address so that could be cool
Your API is fast already, it's mostly that nip98 AUTH requires me to publish a Kind 27235 note, which takes time to broadcast with my current library
Were you thinking this API would be separate from nip98?

2024-08-31 08:45:24

- reply

The copied link is a Tenor link by intent
When you click a gif, a separate API call is made on the back end to upload to nostr.build
That process takes time that would really hinder the user experience if you had to wait for the new url to be generated in order copy it; it’s several seconds

Humbled by the response and the use of gifbuddy.lol
I built this app because I love gifs and I love nostr
I thought it would just be something I could use until my favorite client integrated gifs natively, but I always thought by the time I actually built something it would be obsolete
But the memes from @npub1lrn…qnw5 and that one time @npub1a2c…w83a posted about not having gifs easily accessible kept the idea in the back of my mind
Shout out to @npub137c…k37w for taking the time to help me with the @npub1nxy…avr7 API and to @npub1vp8…npsw for the slick iPhone double tap shortcut that pulls up gifs faster than my native iMessage plugin
I pushed an update to gifbuddy and am going to sleep so hopefully it doesn't break

I took your advice and built a gif nostr companion app:
https://gifbuddy.lol/
You can download the PWA to your home screen, search for your gif, copy the address and paste it into your client
On the back end, for every gif that gets copied/clicked, an API request is made to upload to @npub1nxy…avr7 by @npub137c…k37w
From there a nip94 request is done so that the content can be accessed by any client in the future
Now, anyone who searches for gifs using this tool is also helping to build the gif repository for nip94 and adding fallback urls to nostr.build
And all they did was click to copy #gifs

Well thought out and makes a lot of sense
I do wonder though if future improvements to user interfaces could enhance idealistic donations and retroactive support

Thumbnail and metadata like duration could easily be incorporated with the bot
Description is a bit trickier though, I agree
Only thing that comes to mind is to have an AI transcribe the content and then summarize and title it, but would be costly
Would only be able to rely on zaps to get value back so maybe not the best idea
Just thought I’d throw it out there because people post a bunch of videos as Kind 1s that would be great to build the Flare repository with, but very few people will do the work to post in both areas

The DVM currently only does Speech to Text for Nostr events, but I can update it to work with urls if the PDF is available online
Full disclosure though, the cost is $0.36/1000 characters (not words) so for a full length book it could be more than $100 depending on the length

2024-07-06 08:42:58

Has anyone thought about the marriage of WebRTC and Nostr?
If Nostr adds audio and video calling to its message and money transfer services then phone numbers are obsolete. Like a decentralized, open-sourced Whatsapp that can maintain anonymity.
From my limited understanding, WebRTC requires a "Signaling" server to manage the peer-to-peer connection.
Would this become a client-side integration?
A Data Vending Machine?
Or is there another way to do this entirely?

2024-07-06 06:39:25

- reply

I mostly agree, but I get stuck on this sometimes:
publishing a DVM event, listening for a reply, paying the invoice, and then publishing the result is slower than a traditional API.
It's a tradeoff in that an API requires setup, login, credit card info in order to have "faster" calls.

Like this? The NIP doesn't spec how tags for search should be included. Do you expect this to be under "alt (optional) description for accessibility" or should the NIP be updated to permit such search terms?

I like the idea of classifying file metadata so that it can be parsed in a search, but the NIP itself doesn't solve the original repository problem, right? By this I mean, where do we find the gifs to feed event kinds 1063? That's where I feel like an a supplementary service is needed to start (e.g. Tenor, Giphy, etc). Let me know if I'm thinking about this in the wrong way.

What do you have in mind?

So you’re thinking basically a simple HTTP GET request API for clients to use, yeah?

I just don’t want to have to build out my own gif repository; I wasn’t even planning on charge for the service
I just want gifs

I was thinking that originally, but I don’t think the event range 54XX is exclusive to nostr search as much as that’s all that event range has been used for so far
I’ll work on a mock up tonight; hoping to get it around the speed you have on Noogle, but I’m concerned that the time to have Client publish request->DVM api call->DVM publish result->Client render result might be too long

@npub1l2v…ajft @npub1nxa…a6q8 I’m as disappointed as @npub1lrn…qnw5 about not having gifs in any nostr client
Seems like I could make a DVM for this to shield client developers from data extraction being associated with their app
But I think this would constitute a new event kind and I don’t know a gif search is considered 52XX Image Manipulation or 54XX Discovery, thoughts?

Alright, I just pushed some updates. Which means it's either broken or fixed.
- Published a NIP-89 announcement
- Added 5250 request in output
The code for the DVM is not organized well so I might redo the whole thing if you think you'll use it often.
I had to update the pricing for the DVM because it was set at $0.01 for every request, regardless of length (the value would fluctuate in sats relative to bitcoin price). It's now set to $0.36/1000 characters of content.
Let me know if it's no longer competitive, but it's the best price I can give right now with the services I'm using.
It currently only works for "event" type inputs, but I can add "text", if needed. It should work for other languages too.
Does the DVM not work on any Long Form Content Kind 30023?
Are you requesting TTS for Long Form Content events or text?

Why can’t this be obscured by creating a new npub/nsec for each DM while having the conversation tracked by some arbitrary Tag in the Event?
