Pidgeon / Pidgeon is on Nostr

oh yeah, I totally missed the point 😅
Anyway, thanks for trying Pidgeon.... About the bug I absolutely want to fix it, but I did not quite understand about the nature bug, if there is a note you discuss it could you tag me? Or if you are able to replicate it I would be happy to get more info!
Regarding the "how", we actually do create the note with a future created_at, but we don’t publish it early. The client signs the note, then sends it privately (NIP‑44 + NIP‑59) to the DVM via a custom event.
Nobody except the DVM itself can learn who is scheduling what.
We could simplify things down, but the expense would be more metadata being leaked to the network.

Yeah, if you use a signer you will see a lot of activity in the background, because for every message there is a lot of encryption / wrapping / unencrypting and fetching previously scheduled notes to keep everything as private as possible.
For a deeper dive on how it works you can heas here : https://pidgeon.lol/how
If you want to check yourself what is going on you can create a new nostr account and set amber to manually sign every every event when scheduling a post so you can see the steps required or check the code on GitHub.
For anything you are also welcome to drop me a message 😉
@npub1t6j…ksrw I don't think we can "automate" this as encryption/sealing/wrapping etc... will always be required in the design we want to achieve. Is it more of a question of how frequently you are comfortable setting up your signer to prompt you to manually sign events

Thanks for your feedback! 🐦🐦
Right now I have a very loose "subscription model" if you want to schedule posts more than 7 days ahead or you already scheduled 10 posts you would get a popup, but you also have a "use for free" button. So anybody can basically use the app for free without limit.
At this stage I would prefer people to feel free experiment with it, and have donations from users genuinely interested in support the development.

Technically .... If we assume if Nostr in 2140 will be retrocompatible with today's AND the DVM will still alive by that year 🤣

Well, we made it possible to self-host it easily. in the client you can just type your own hosted DVM pubkey!
So, yeah selfhosting is as always encouraged.
That being said, we implemented it in a way that all requests between user and DVM are encypted and wrapped (NIP44+NIP59), so for lesser technical users it might sense to make use of our DVM.

Hello nostr 🕊️ we are Pidgeon!
a privacy first scheduler for Nostr.
Write now and post later. All traffic between you and us is encrypted so third parties cannot tell you scheduled.
You can even run your own DVM and point the app to it.
try it at https://pidgeon.lol
Code is publicly available at https://github.com/MaviLabArt/Pidgeon
Feedbacks are welcome, so we can improve together 😀

Thanks for trying it out!

Not at all, we went to great lengths in order to make it as private and secure as possible 😁
Basically schedule requests are NIP44 and gift wrapped requests to a DVM (of course broadcasted over nostr).
If you are interested in the details, here there is a write up:
