op and direct reply are fine, IMO, and mentioning the npub of the direct reply but mentioning the whole path to the op is retarded

normal threaded discussions only link the post into the thread and trigger a notification for the user who was replied to. not the whole damn path up the tree

the structure is a doubly linked list/tree, that's reasonable

The whole point is that the discussion is not threaded. It's air replies.

ah, so instead of creating these tags the reply button is the quote button

makes sense. would also be kinda cool in that the relay hints are in there as well

this is like email replies except more compact because the reader can fetch the reference

it would mean that seeing other than the single path up would be hard to do as well. you'd click on what you reply to, if it's a reply, you click on that, etc etc ad lib to fade

Although, you could get around that with a filter, by saying,

🔗 Show me the chain.

That's not a true thread, but would display them in order.

yeah, also you could have a setting "don't show quote replies from follows if you mute the quoted npub"

this would end thread notification trolling

and bury the thread references in a menu button that is in the overflow ...

He already has quotes for context in the spec. I didn't see that. That's okay. Yeah, quote-replies, no threads.

i like it because it ends the whole tree below triggering notifications pointlessly

With this architecture, you're only in the game If someone specifically wants you to be. The side-threads are actually new convos that splintered off and only appear in those person's notifications.

I'm not going to do any references or replies, at all. I can already see y'all turning my nice, clean UI into spaghetti.

I'll just do "q" tags and show them as a snippet, that's also a hyperlink to that event in the feed.
