Also, don't forget kid, plenty of people post adult content on nostr without getting censored. And why don't likes from other clients show up on Primal? Because it's censored by their devs? Duh!
Discussion
Kid? Is that supposed to upset me?
Likes from other clients show up on primal lol what are you talking about?
Why the fuck would someone build on nostr and then censor their users? Like actually give me one good reason because this is retarded. Primal isn’t even a profitable business yet so they can’t afford to censor anyone.
🙄🤨no, it was not. It's just an expression.
Perhaps for you. But for many others, no, they do not. This post of mine shows ten likes on Amethyst and, as you can see, only two on Primal. It does this with all my posts and comments. IIRC, they mentioned that this was fixed in a previous update yet I and many other npubs, who I've noticed in my feed, have brought this up.
I don't know. Ask them. I'm sure they'll spin some stupid excuse. The only semi-logical reason I can think of is to create narratives that focus on and promote strictly their own products and services. And most people are seemingly being censored only on Primal. If you use any other client, everything (likes, boosts etc.) shows up just fine. At least, on the other primary social clients that are used. If they're not profitable then they shouldn't be censoring people😮💨🤨. Just another mistake on their end. Just like how everyone realized that they do indeed collect advance search data on their server (unlike what it said in Apple's app store).
Also, you know you could've handled this calmly and just asked me these questions. No need to get worked up over a matter that doesn't impact you in any way.
I thought you meant the reactions lol like primal used to only show you hearts instead of other emoji reactions.
But yeah you’re right some notifications are missing. I’ve been having that issue with damus lately as well. It doesn’t mean you should immediately expect malicious intent. Primal has a pretty retarded caching relay. It has some benefits but it also has drawbacks. Part of it is that notifications get fucked up sometimes. I’m hoping that it’ll get cleaned up with time, it’s still really early.
Btw I only see 5 reactions on damus for that post. Does that mean damus is censoring you too? Are all these devs trying to build censorship on an open protocol where 99% of the users want censorship resistance? Hanlon’s razor says “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.” Again we are early and there are bugs. Also, different clients filter out spam in different ways. Some are better than others.
They collect data on advanced search to optimize the search. They already addressed that. You don’t have to believe them if you don’t want to but it makes sense. They need some data to improve it 😂
I am not worked up haha
Again, VC-funded crap too often has malicious intent masqerading as benevolent ones. So, I'll steer clear of Primal.
Nope. I suspect it's a relay issue with Damus. Honestly, some devs could very well be doing that. People can be very easily deceived.
"to optimize the search"? Geee where have we heard that before?
Ok. Coulda fooled me. You seemed a bit agitated. Defining context is another thing I hate about using socials.
Primal made it clear early on that they plan on finding ways to make it profitable. I don’t expect them to do all this work for free.

Yes, i remember that post. I was in that discussion and was one of the many people who boosted Semisol's post. Pavle's narcissistic and condescending responses to all of our questions pissed many other devs and users off that day. It also did a big number on his and Primals rep. I still side with Will on that matter. Then they should've have taken GitCitadel's approach to gathering funds and not asked manipulative VCs (they almost always are).
Do you use an iPhone?
