@983d344d , it’s a lot harder and more expensive than it seems.. We have looked at many options trying to be more decentralized, but IPFS and Torrent aren’t reliable and hard to dev in, nodes are designed for text, images are hard and expensive..
The best way we can be ‘decentralized’ is to support and promote other image uploaders: nostrimg.com, nostrcheck.me, satellite.earth/cdn, void.cat, to build your own image uploader, we provide FOSS and present on how at Nostr events, and continue to innovate..
We are working on ways to work with other media uploaders hosting each others media/copies providing more decentralization.. Until then, your memes are safe on Nostr.build, and if it is sensitive and important material, we recommend hosting yourself or another service.

I don’t want to be “hired”, e.g. work for someone to solve the problems they think is a priority. I am working on this now and purely out of pass and for free (I am not taking any profits so far). What exactly are you proposing? Work on a specific problem of decentralized media delivery that is fast and accessible, and works across all clients? 🐶🐾🫡
@The Fishcake🐶🐾 maybe I’m mistaken I never extended any offer to you nor asked anything pertaining to what you are working on or what you want.
Fishcake is my partner and lead dev for nostr.build. He is a world-class dev that has completely rewrote nostr.build code making it safe, reliable, feature rich and open source.
We have had many conversations about decentralized media, creating a platform around it, and there are currently too many challenges, costs, etc. especially since 90% of our media is memes and fun pics.
*Name a reliable centralized media storage site/project/offering, there aren’t any.. It’s not easy.
My guess is it would take a team of well funded engineers 2-3 years+ to create this.
*Name a reliable de-centralized media storage.. (fixed typo from above)
Then why are you complaining we get the problem I’m saying if the resources where allocated are you willing to get to work?
I’m not complaining and absolutely.
Seems like there is some misunderstanding. I don’t think either of us are complaining, we are probably just talking about different things. @983d344d could you please elaborate what you are proposing in a single note so we stay on one page? Thank you! 🐶🐾🫂🙏🏻
Sorry, I might have wrote my reply in too dry of a tone, wasn’t my intention. I was just trying to explain the motivation behind what I was doing. I do agree that having a well funded people working on a solution could yield higher chances for success. 🐶🐾🫂
