#asknostr 
can not upload images on amethyst all day.

 It happens, clearing cache seems to fix it. Not sure if there's a better solution tho nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7anfw3hhytnwdaehgu339e3k7mf0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tch2deau #amethyst 
 Which server were you using?  
 Oh wasn't even attuned to the fact I can select different servers. It looks like nostr.build is set as default.

 I was just able for the first time to upload a photo today!  
 I can’t point to the exact logs, but the most common failures we see is with the timestamp being out of range (+/-60 seconds). We can’t help with people not having their phones synchronize their time. We see at least a few hundred requests a day with that issues, and all of them are from Android phones. 🫡 
 Very interesting. Isn't it too short for large videos over 3g?  
 Good point, but somehow Damus or other iOS devices don’t have that issue. Not sure if the signature is applied differently there 🤔 
 We have Tor and we also use scheduled IO threads. So if the app/OS is doing other things in the IO thread, the upload might be delayed a bit. But it shouldnt be that long. So I think it is mostly a slow connection + wrong date time of the phone.  
 I just bumped it to a 5 minutes window. Let’s see if this will improve the situation a bit 
 +/- 5 mins or just to the past? 

Void.cat seems to be annoyed by auths a few seconds in the future from us. 
 abs(sig_ts - now()) < 5 mins 
 yes, you can add many, so when you post, it posts to all of them from my understanding, which is what makes it censorship resistant. 
 I think for the file server you pick only one from the drop down. Don't think I can select multiple.  
 when you say servers, do you mean relays ? 
 I don't think that's what's meant. we are talking about the image upload files uploading to a server pretty sure there's a difference with the relays. but hey I am no dev.  
 oh, I see, I'm actually confused on that part. maybe the relays are channels through which data travels to servers ? not sure, I need to look into it 😅
