@grahamonero grahamonero released this 02 Aug 02:18

A small fix on top of 0.1.0.

Fixed: the feed tabs (Following · Popular · Trending Monero · Live) could be hidden on narrow windows, which left no way to reach any feed other than Following. They now stay visible at every window width.

If 0.1.0 works for you, there's no urgency in updating.


Nosdag is a desktop Nostr client that keeps your notes and media on an IPFS node running inside the app.

Bring the npub you already have: your profile, follows and relays come with you, you post ordinary signed events, and people on other clients read you normally. What Nosdag adds is somewhere for the data itself to live — your machine.

Which file do I want?

File For
Nosdag-0.1.1-x86_64.AppImage Most people. Portable, no install. chmod +x it and run it.
nosdag_0.1.1_amd64.deb Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, Pop!_OS, Zorin
nosdag-0.1.1.tar.gz Any other distro — extract anywhere and run ./nosdag

All builds are x86_64 Linux. Nothing is code-signed yet, so your desktop may warn you about an unknown publisher.

AppImage

chmod +x Nosdag-0.1.1-x86_64.AppImage
./Nosdag-0.1.1-x86_64.AppImage

Debian / Ubuntu

sudo apt install ./nosdag_0.1.1_amd64.deb

Keep the ./ — it tells apt to install the local file. Plain apt install nosdag will not
work, because Nosdag isn't in an APT repository yet.

Verify what you downloaded against SHA256SUMS.txt:

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS.txt --ignore-missing

Optional extras

  • ffmpeg on your PATH — needed to attach video from a phone. Nosdag strips the metadata and converts HEVC to H.264 so every viewer can play it.
  • tor — needed for anonymous mode. If it isn't on your PATH, launch with TOR_BIN=/path/to/tor. Already run your own Tor router or Whonix-style gateway? Point Nosdag at it from the Anonymous Mode page instead.

Before you start

Back up your key. Your nsec is your account — there is no reset and no recovery. Export it from Settings → Your data the first time you open the app and keep it offline.

What's in it

Notes, threads, replies and long-form articles · media served from your own node · Monero tipping and paywalled posts · anonymous mode over Tor, including support for an external Tor proxy · Cloud Bridge pinning and altruistic hosting for the accounts you follow · whole-history export and restore as a single .car file · timeline import for your pre-Nosdag notes.

Status

This is a pre-release. It works and is used daily, but it has not been through wide testing, anonymous mode is experimental, and there are no signed installers or auto-updates yet. Treat it as something to try rather than the only home for anything you care about.
