does anybody have a good (cheap) way to fetch + utf-8 decode tx data?

tx.cool has been broken for 1+ year, but I want to fix it cause apparently it gets a lot of traffic

I stopped maintaining after the 1st month because data fetching was hard

use can use something like envio for a raw tx data, but still have to filter out non-utf8 stuff

Try our API https://docs.dune.com/developer-apis/transactions

Feel like you would get very far on Dune with even the free plan, but not if you are going to do the work on request

I use this to download mp3s onchain:

curl -sX POST --data '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"eth_getLogs","params":[{"topics":["0x81fb8daf8a05fc760e25f1447b0ca819bcf138a168ec6c1aaa0bd62b170bf32a"], "fromBlock": 17695077, "toBlock": 17795079}],"id":1}' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://192.168.100.10:8545 | jq -r '.result[] | .data' | xxd -r -p | strings 

So, JSON RPC endpoint + jq + xxd + strings. You could maybe use Lava Network to get cheap RPC endpoints?
