Would you encourage your teenage daughter/son to join Nostr?

I’d love to bring the whole family here, but I want to be cautious.

Would you be concerned about the potential risks linked to the lack of content moderation?

(harassment, bullying, exposure to harmful content, …)

Centralized platforms like Instagram offer “teen accounts” with stronger safety settings that limit unwanted contacts, inappropriate content, etc. They often require parents to supervise the account and authorize less protective safety settings.

Would it be possible to replicate some of these safety measures in Nostr? Is there any NIP out there addressing this?

Could the Bitcoin concept of hierarchical deterministic wallets be adapted to Nostr?

A (literally!) 'parent' account could potentially manage 'child' accounts with limitations like whitelists, blacklists, messaging and content restrictions.

What do you think? #asknostr

Personally, if I want to get my children involved with Nostr, I will do it on my own account where I can assist with the content curation. Access to the digital realm for teenagers and children should be treated with caution, even with safeguards. Nostr is no different.

Would it be a cool feature for parent accounts on Nostr? Absolutely.

Should this be developed? At some point, yes.
