Introducing Cherry Tree, chunked files stored on blossom servers
https://github.com/hzrd149/cherry-tree
https://npub19sstws4x9t7nua2sh6cxkeez25y6lvvnq6fqpmyzwnthsjap5tqqkdsghg.nsite.lol/

The experiment was to see how easy it was to split a large file into chunks, then upload those chunks to multiple blossom servers and reassemble then on another computer

The best part about this is the blossom server has no idea its storing a chunked file. it just sees a bunch of binary blobs uploaded from a random pubkey

This isn't private though, the blossom servers could easily look at the content of the binary blobs an figure out what type of file it was and piece it together. however if the client encrypted the blob first it would be a lot more private

If you want to play around with it you can find a list of public blossom servers at https://blossomservers.com/

If you want more details I've created a PR explaining how it works https://github.com/hzrd149/blossom/pull/51

The app was built using applesauce https://hzrd149.github.io/applesauce/ rx-nostr https://penpenpng.github.io/rx-nostr/en/ and blossom-client-sdk https://www.npmjs.com/package/blossom-client-sdk packages
