* Just a twitter clone

* 2023 shadow ban incident

* Still uses note... instead of nevent1

* No access to "other stuff"

* Rigged trending algo

* Slowest dev yet the best funded nostr project

* Media involving minors stored on the media servers

* should I add more?

add more, I didn't really know

thanks

Oh, yeah, I forgot about some of those. *shudder*

and I left out some stuff 😉

What's the 2023 shadow ban incident?

"Media involving minors stored on the media servers"🤢

Their media server is notoriously subpar.

I just stopped using them because I didnt like their interface and how they're KYC (huge red flag) but, I had no idea there was all this!👀

sounds a good time to move my sats and change wallet 😤😬

That's probably a good idea. Any kind of "freedom tech" that's KYC is not genuine freedom technology.

They curate the trending list, and got caught suppressing someone quite popular. Turned into a gigantic shitstorm. 😅

Sounds like the devs of Primal would have great careers working for Twitter.

Yeah that was kind of a big deal.

Genuinely though: when you join #Damus you are automatically given a list of “people” with their self-reported “subject matter expert” listing next to it.

One automatically puts their-self into an algorithm that way too. Right?

Yes, that's what Primal also does.

The Primal trending list is a different topic.

Appreciated. Thought so but appreciate the confirmation. 🫡

I wonder who is on the Damus recommendation list? 🤔 I've only seen the one from Primal, since I'm on Android.

Ima get another phone soon for more research purposes 😂🫡🫂

No.

nostr:npub192klhzk86sav5mgkfmveyjq50ygqfqnfvq0lvr2yv0zdtvatlhxskg43u7 primal auto follows, whereas damus does not auto-follow anyone outside the damus profile.

Damus suggests folks in categories. It is not perfect. Will improve.

Fair correction. Thanks 🙏 It’s been awhile.

Please do add more.

Always add more 🫡

Be fair & critique the other apps as well
