File storage. Luckily, nostr devs haven't been slacking here. We have multiple solutions:
  • blossom which is an http spec for plug and play blob storage to get around the centralization of media and file hosting
  • martti malmi has been working on p2p file storage techniques. just last week he was showing me his new app called hashtree/filetree, which allows you to share merkle trees of directories/files that can be replicated using webrtc.
  • I have been interested in integrating bittorrent v2 more tightly into the file sharing solutions on nostr
There are lots of promising things in this area, as long as it isn't ipfs. ipfs is terrible.

Excellent! That’s basically the last element I need to be fully divorced from Big Tech services.
