nostrcheck.me on Nostr: Nostrcheck wants the people who use nostr to be sovereign of their services, we want ...

Nostrcheck wants the people who use nostr to be sovereign of their services, we want thousands of people to install nostrcheck on their servers and then, if necessary, disappear.

Look for another nostr provider who dares to say this so clearly.

I think one of the most important challenges in nostr is going to be about the servers that host files, and we are not devoting enough attention to it.

Right now there are 5 of us (as far as I know)

nostr.build
void.cat
nostrimg.com
nostrfiles.dev
nostrcheck.me

I believe that self-custody of files should be encouraged as soon as possible so that anyone can host their own files on their own server (at home for example).

In this way, NIP-96's proposal together with more users installing nostrcheck.me on their home servers is the solution to the centralization of this important part of the protocol.

I would like that this proposal can prosper to adapt my server to its specifications and finally get that many nostr users never again depend on anyone to share their own files in a sovereign way.

If anyone is interested in collaborating, here is the code.

In case someone didn't know it, the goal of nostrcheck.me is to be used locally by many people and then step aside so that no one will ever again have to depend on a service provider for their own nostr address, file uploads and all the other services implemented on the server, if anyone has doubts why nostrcheck.me offers all its services for free, I guess they finally know what is its ultimate goal, to disappear to make way for thousands of sovereign nostrcheck.me.
