Oddbean new post about login | logout I remember and still think blobs should be stored *not* in json encoded events. still think @nothenry ‘s original proposal from a year ago is fine. curious how blossom is different.
Now that some clients are putting base64 images directly inside the .content of kind 1s to go around the chinese firewall, NIP-95 is easy.
Which client?
I don't know. I just see the event with the massive base64 in it. It's becoming quite common.
I was just testing this yesterday, hoping to find that clients would render a data URL embedded in kind1 content. None of the clients I tested did, though. Storing file hashes and content in events makes sense to me. If there are clients that support it I’d love to see what they’ve implemented. I was thinking of experimenting with it this week(end).
