Interesting how ephemeral notes on nostr are. It feels very much like Twitter, once something is a day old, good luck ever finding it again!
This isn't necessarily a problem, most of this stuff should be ephemeral. But some kind of mechanism for evergreen-ing some content would be good.
Bookmarks and pinned notes kind of get to that, but maybe clients should support something more opinionated, like "collections" — implemented as lists probably, but designed to be read through in connection with some external context, like a pubkey or topic.
So for example, you want to know what I think about political philosophy? Well, here's an ordered list of 50 of the best notes I've collected over the course of 10 years by combining highlights, quotes, and original content. A kind of micro-publishing thing.
