FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

It's me, StellarStoic! Unknown to the world because I always keep my distance from it. But you can find me on the protocols like Nostr and ...Nostr

or on the internets like SIGNAL and TELEGRAM

If you find something you believe is illegal, disturbing, or malicious, you can report the URL by emailing to report@snofl.com. Please provide as many details as possible about the URL in question in your email. I will do everything within my power to make the URL inaccessible if it is found to violate our policies.

The "Your Content" section is where you present your content to the end user. You can type freely and structure it as you like.

You can embed Nostr notes and npub profiles by adding a prefix:

  • nostr:note1t9wfaksdutq0hlnvqpzud5cq4wm9574mey0ykg3ju65stgezvsds56fg9z
  • nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m
Only the note1... format is supported—sorry!

You can also include links to images or videos to display them in your custom page. Both Vimeo and YouTube links are supported and will generate thumbnails.

QR codes can be embedded using the qr: prefix, such as qr:somethingSomething. Some QR codes can include logos, which are used with specific prefixes:
  • bitcoin:
  • lightning:
  • ecash:
  • monero:
(If you think more should be added, let me know.)

Links starting with https:// will be formatted to open on click.

Note: Script tags are not supported in this section. If you attempt to post code, the URL will be invalid for the end user. If you must share code, take a screenshot and upload it as an image link instead.

The ShowHistory section contains all the Nostr events you have posted.

If you have created and used multiple Nostr IDs, each ID will have a different **color** to distinguish them. Each ID is given a **randomly generated name**, which consists of:

  • A random adjective
  • A random noun
  • A random number from 01 to 21
This name is always displayed under your avatar like weepy_bumph_13.

In the ShowHistory section, you will see a **number** in front of each name, which represents the **total number of notes** you have posted with that specific ID.

The details also include:
  • Your **private key** (masked with ***** for security). Click to reveal it.
  • A **QR code** on the other side, which allows you to easily import the ID into any Nostr client.
  • Basic **Nostr event details** (following Kind 1 Nostr Events specifications).

I am aware of the security risks associated with storing private keys in plain sight, but these are disposable IDs, and you should treat them as such.
Extra Features:
  • A large **Download** button at the top to export your full history in JSON format.
  • A **Delete All (Panic Button)** at the bottom if you want to erase everything quickly.

When you post a response (a note), you receive feedback containing the event details. The note has been broadcasted to Nostr relays and is now part of Nostr forever.

You have several options to search for your note:

  • Use the search client to look up similar content.
  • Copy the event ID in the event details and search for it manually.
  • Visit njump.me using the buttons below the event details.
  • Copy the event ID with a button bellow the event details and search for it manually.

If you lost track of your posted note details, don't worry. All your posted notes are stored in the ShowHistory section, located in the footer below.

Yes, you can use the search client to look up content on Nostr relays that support NIP-50.

You can search using multiple keywords, either combined or separately. You can toggle the view by keyword, or even block publishers you don't like.

It's still a work in progress, so some features may not work as expected. Reactions don’t work yet, and things are still a bit clunky because, honestly, I suck at understanding WebSockets. 😅

The security of the URL encryption on this platform relies on AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), specifically AES-256. This encryption standard is widely recognized as one of the most secure methods available today and is used globally to protect sensitive data, including government and financial information.

🔐 What Makes AES-256 Strong?

  • Key Length: AES-256 uses a 256-bit encryption key, offering 2256 possible combinations. This is a number so large that even modern supercomputers would take billions of years to brute-force it.
  • Cryptographic Strength: AES is a symmetric encryption algorithm, meaning the same key is used for encryption and decryption. This simplicity ensures high speed without compromising security.

Examples of Password Strength and Brute-Forcing

Password Length/Type Time to Crack (Brute Force)
Weak (e.g., "12345") Instantly
Moderate (e.g., "P@ssw0rd") A few hours with modern hardware
Strong (e.g., "F&2zL!8x9wXy@#Tp") Over 1 trillion years

Best Practices for Maximum Security

  • Choose a password with a minimum of 12 characters, including uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and special symbols.
  • Avoid common words, predictable phrases, or keyboard patterns.
  • Store passwords in a secure password manager instead of relying on memory.

A Brief History of AES

AES was established as the encryption standard by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2001. It replaced the older DES (Data Encryption Standard) due to advancements in computing power that made DES vulnerable. AES was selected through a global competition and is based on the Rijndael cipher, designed by cryptographers Joan Daemen and Vincent Rijmen.

Why Privacy Matters

Protecting sensitive information like URLs ensures that your personal data and activity remain private. Encryption plays a crucial role in safeguarding secure links and confidential content, providing peace of mind that unauthorized access is nearly impossible. However, centralized institutions have a poor reputation for securely storing personal data, highlighting the need for individuals to take control of their privacy. While encryption is a powerful tool, it’s only as strong as its weakest link—humans. Mistakes, phishing, and social engineering can compromise even the most robust security systems. Empowering users with knowledge and awareness is just as important as using strong encryption.

Always remember: The strength of encryption depends on the strength of your password, your opsec and people you share this password with!
