Nostr Web Client

People’s behavior is different than their advertised preference.

I would suggest that I have not seen in the real world *a choice* in a single nostr client of chronological vs opt-in algo feed.

It could be I am not aware of all clients. You can make the case that if you combine a few different parts of different tools (e.g. zaplife, nostr.band or primal trending etc.) to achieve this optionality in a intuitive way in a single client.

In my view the only way to tell js to let folk reveal their preference through action (a great example of this is onlyzaps opt-in functionality). nostr:note10awnna77uyeerpzhrprfapye4tsrq996ztsv3wjgu07qscvlu3dqu0kntp

I’m dying for an algo feed. Idk how anyone can have a chronological feed that’s interesting unless they only follow < 10 people.

Curating your feed with high quality follows takes a lot of effort. I’d recommend one to seriously put in tons of effort, as what you see daily in your timeline is the brainfood that you feed your mind.

Great points.

I’d like to use #damus for different things and I tend to follow lots of people, basically if there’s something about someone that remotely interests me I’ll follow them.

But chronologically ordered posts gives equal weight to posts and I’m usually more interested in notes with comments / zaps, plus I miss notes that are posted when outside the times I’m on Nostr - so I periodically check Nostr.band or primal but those still aren’t perfect because it’s too global
