What if you did a combination of a block List and allow List? so the users can subscribe to your list by default in your platform but then they could submit a set of users or IP to their personal allow list on their client and it permits these to come through or you could reference their followers if they’re following somebody you’ve blocked, you could allow that to come through. If there’s inappropriate person responsible because they specifically added it to their list.

What if there was a service to surface posts with less than 5 interactions to help spread around the unheard folks? It keeps cycling in new stuff for ~8 -16 hrs until it’s old or had 5 interactions. Blocks or mutes could be interactions.
Clients could then mix in some percentage of this stream along with the normal subscribed etc stuff. Client side setting could at it to 10% or whatever? Help me see why this kind of things is a bad idea for discoverability? #asknostr

Every country that works to censor the posts should have those posts affiliated with a tag. Then anyone should be able to follow that tag and see all the posts that any given government entity has chosen to censor. So worst case from within its censored (by law) but with the rest of the world - example your strategic foes - they can call see your hand what is censored. Like that kind of poker where everyone else can see the card on your forehead bnut you (your own citizens). Then perhaps Governments will be shamed into censoring less.

Yes! Though I still will not want to see violent or abusive content show up in my timeline if there was a way that I had chosen on the client to filter out those tags (especially if little ones are around).
Due to current lack of client side user choice filtering I hesitate to invite a whole group of others to this blossoming new technology. I know many moms who will not abide by such lack of feature. Maybe this is part of why women’s don’t feel comfortable here?
We want a permissions web, but the user should be able to withdraw permission from being exposed to known content types at least by tag (IMO).

SaidRkinoxPretty
I wanted to notify arkinox the moment I hit at. I lost edit ability to the post. I good preview and saw it tagged him moment I typed “A” but I could preview or edit. I could not return to type. I thought funny if it took his name from just A so I tried to type more of his name. It must have dropped that after the first word. Didn’t see any way out but to post or cancel. So I thought I’d see what I got if I posted. That was it.

May also be interesting to have a toggle that allows you to flip your default algorithm to something close to the opposite of what you normally see. Like a “Dark mode” for content that flips to the inverse of your normal interactions or topics. Maybe need some AI to generate that. Just an idea.
You could still have content filters apply, but look for posts outside your social network normal interactions.

One app has delayed post. Love that with no info button. One seems to fail to post to multiple relays for me, but warns me with feedback. Another makes posts with images more prominent. Another makes long notes more visible. Some treat zaps and reactions differently. One allows many reactions one just single reaction.
It would be nice if these were combined. Or if the libraries to accomplish some of these services were made available to implement like from some open source library so that people could assemble the client they like. Like a #NostrInnerSource community of devs or something.

Maybe some kind of moderator would be a service on a paid relay. And you could find different content moderated out in different paid relays looking at otherwise the same content?
Small amount of sats from paid relay could go to moderators based on activity and satisfaction rating of community?
This keeps mods engaged but not wanting to moderate stuff for sats - as that drops the satisfaction rating of the community?

Inteeesting point about overemphasis on one problem area. It is a weakness.
I think this would be a good reason to go back to the idea of communities in Nostr land. It makes me think Like stack exchange. For them creating communities, it’s defined through a unique combinations of tags. That specific combo defines a community. The unique thing is how to share that definition on a non centralized platform., or how to rename that definition by consensus over time?
Anyway if these communities existed you could discover them. And if a tag is in more than one community you may discover other communities that one one shared tag with another interest area of yours? If there was a way to look up which communities have been defined including that tag?
Just some random thoughts.

It looks like you solved this. But Incase you need to do it again here are a few other points I am remembering.
The team said it was different if you know MVC models. It’s like he MV combined. As opposed to for example Angular which (I think) is MVC (does that make any sense?) 🤣. So that’s a hard transition for some folks.
They always talked about a “react app” or single page app? Maybe it’s more of an app vs a page?
Related I think pretty much everything is a component. So make components.
Build the app with Create React App (CRA) command to run some kind of build compiler.
That team preferred Vite and switched to that I think from CRA

2024-03-28 03:34:34 UTC

Have the protocol folks considered some kind of syndication manifest that summaries and publishes pointers to all the events someone posted in a fixed timeperiod (eg 24/12/4 hrs)? Then if they pub that, and you sub that, you could find you had missed some of their stuff that maybe went to a smaller relay. People could pub their manifest to the larger relays - or as a suplement to the gossip flow on smaller relays. But they send their regular messages to interact with them only on the smaller relays in real time. Maybe something like this could support or reinforce the gossip model. Then you could discover that you are missing content from the manifests, and tell your client to go watch for peoples real time content on such and such a relay/connection. But if you dont need it real time, you can just catch the relay/digest/manifest next time it comes out for those folks you still care about. Kind of like the Listen vs Subscribe idea i was thinking of earlier? Whats crazy here? Why is this destructive or what does it hurt as another approach?

So is there a solution here where the local clients (?) store an index of the records pulled down and share that between clients in interoperable way so they don’t need to pull the same record down more than once even if you have more than one client or more than one relay that’s accessing the same record? Or perhaps this could be done as an added service where your verified user ID is? Maybe that’s one reason to pay for a verified user ID to get this kind of collection parsing?

These super light weight periodic post types could be sent broadly and people could go follow that trail to the content of their feed is so to follow those users content regardless of where the content was published. The manifest messages could be sent and searched to more relays than the average current our users use for their note publish actions.

2024-03-27 03:59:29 UTC

New idea for Nostr and relay distribution. A manifest.
Each user publishes just a manifest of their key activity every day or every 4 hrs and people can follow those and go get messages if needed from that tip?

What about how you shop on Amazon, you see other viewers of this item also put this item in their cart, or customers ultimately bought this item.
Similarly in user experience (but different in data assembly) it could show “user abc follows the author of *this post *on relay 123.456”. “Or this author posts moss on relay 234”
This authors top interactions on this relay are with these individuals (or on these relays?) consider following.
Or subscribe to a topic or this author to find similar content.
Or
What of you could “subscribe to the author and their top contributors” instead of only to the author?

2024-03-21 03:52:44 UTC

- reply

Is perhaps another approach a Nostur directory approach? Because when you’re looking for post from someone, are you really looking for the relays they’re posting on or you’re looking for their account for recent activity? if you have a list of subscriptions to people you’re interested in your client could go out to some group group of decentralized directories to find out where that individual is currently posting in terms of which relays. Recent activity, whichever relay is convenient or low latency, or etc.
Maybe someone who has more technical experience here could say why this is not a valid idea. I’m just considering is it a problem seeing notes or finding the right relays? Or is it actually a problem knowing where to look for the people you’re connected to? Something like a search crawler spider on the internet. But for your interests and contacts.

Bitcoin is a good store of value because like Gold we are saying as it’s not counterfeit-able.
But if someone hoards a lot of gold they will eventually spend it, or pass it on when they die, or burry it.
Let’s say they burry it. Decades or hundreds of years later someone could find it. It’s just as valuable to them (if not more due to inflation). Even if it’s in a. Safe someone can crack the safe and take it. The world is not poorer.
But if someone loosed or fouled their keys. Let say they had a password or bio auth and you can’t retrieve them. Now that bitcoin is lost. Right? Never recoverable? Or is it?
The world is poorer by the amount lost. So even though those bitcoin exist no one can access or spend them or use them. Right?
This seems a problem. They have no inherent value aside from the proven stewardship of them?
Also if true could someone target a high volume holder of bitcoin then? And kill them or destroy their keys / thereby reducing the total spendable bitcoin and thus driving up the price for remaining bitcoin holders? Is this also not a problem?

Here is what another highly visual book Making Work Visible did. The author created an audio companion pdf. You could in your case put it behind some kind of paywall or something? I don't know. But having listened to the Audio bookm and reading on kindle - it was pretty hard to visualize this stuff until I accessed the companion. In fact i may have tried in kindle also. If memory serves me, even reading it on kindle was a pain as it was black and white instead of color and you can't zoom in. So in that case the pdf companion was also useful.
