If you were thinking of filtering bots from the global feed like I was... yes this would probably have to be more of a client side filter thing. I don't think there's a way to search for only humans unless we made bots a differently kind which would be weird

Perhaps in the future clients could manually opt-out posts to be included in global feeds. Then the global feed could be a much cleaner and simple #nip12 query... tags: ["scope", "global"] or something that are added to all posts by default?
Global filter could be: {#scope: global}
And if you didn't want to be in the global feed you could configure your client to remove that tag?
ohh i really like the scope query structure, though I don't think its worth using for global feed (since this will go away soon). but it would allow us to do subreddit type posts without admins which would be cool.
I had idea to keep the global feed:
until: now
limit: 100
It doesn't need to be realtime
I will likely convert my global tab into the search tab. It will just show some random global activity before you do a search just to have something there.
IMO the global tab is a really good place to find other people I don't already follow. What about fetching the global feed for the last 24 hours or less?
We have limit now so it's better to just use that instead of since. #[4]
yeah I agree. also starting to think its better to run my own relay and just tailor global type feeds from there
