I have seen disappointing and downright evil on Nostr. What's cool is that I'm able to isolate it and ignore it. Of course it's out there, human nature runs the full spectrum. But I don't control others, and I don't want anyone to have control over what I see on my feed. No algorithms pulling things back and out of my sight, and no ads pushing things forward that I don't want to see. That's the dream. And that's the reality on Nostr. I really hope that doesn't change.

Oh wow. I haven't seen anything like that. I guess my feed is pretty well curated.

It would be nice if from the client or from relay settings you could isolate hashtags or users you don’t want to see pulled back. Or configure a filter for “family-safe” that you define and like dark mode or light mode you could filter that stuff out for most of the time unless you find some specific post is being blocked you are looking for. I hear we need to stand up a relay or such to do this. But why can’t I do it on the client? Or on the relay settings when I add a relay?

Like “Apply client/ profile filter settings to this relay?”
