As an FYI, all Amethyst mutes are and have always been private. They will not show up in this tool. You can keep muting whoever you want without backlash.
Discussion
I want my muted list to be public and it should show on everyone's public list so we know who the most muted people are, the annoying people should know they are annoying
Then just report them. Reports are public, mutes are private.
Why would I report them? they haven't done anything to be reported, they are just annoying, that's why the mute list is for
I can make an annoying category for reports. Either way this is not changing.
that's not good enough, everything should be open and transparent, I want my block list, muted list and reports to all be public, even when I unfollow someone that person should get a notification that I unfollowed them.
The more drama the better
Nah. Next version will help you manage private follows. Nobody will see who follows who.
why do we need that? you're just helping people hide things,
you just want to follow zap queens and not have you girlfriend know about it, you should be more faithful or open about it, not hide it
Really nostr:nprofile1qqsqc3wh630dkradmfppt5mv5rv6hgx8wxu96dchwe9c5y5dtezrungpzfmhxue69uhhwmm59e6hg7r09ehkuegpzemhxue69uhky6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skcgvelvy, out of all the things to Zap you Zap this? Being able to see who other people follow is how I was able to build my account (and I’m not alone here). That’s successful social media 101.
Ok, and it's because Vitor builds a good client that I personally use, and enjoy.
I think it's a good client, and allowing people to have secret follows would be a good feature.
So I tipped a $1 to use market signals that I as an end consumer of his FOSS product that I want a feature like that.
Sometimes people have interests, hobbies, and pages that they don't want others to know about.
My point is the more people that use that particular client, the worse NOSTR will get as a functional social media and it already has an uphill battle.
Amethyst is the only client that actually works, and has a decent UI.
Nostr is an open protocol, you're free to use a client where all follows are publicly broadcast while I will use a client that gives me optional transparency.
And even if that feature is, or isn't imemented I will continue to use Amethyst since Vitor listens to user feedback.
Not saying other devs don't but Vitor has taken some of my feedback into consideration in the past, or so it seems.
And I will gladly continue to use as long as it's a good client, if it stopped being good then I would use another client that works better.
The problem is that not all clients use private mute lists, so if you use one of those, your mutes are ignored.
True, all clients should use private mute lists given that’s the default on original Twitter.
Wait, is mute the same as block? I only see a block option for npubs.
You can't block people from seeing your posts on Nostr, you can only block yourself from seeing their comments.
Unless ... you run your own relays, and only post to them, at which point your could modify the voice to prevent your mutes from reading anything from your relays.
Thank you for respecting Nostr Users, and their privacy, Vitor 😎👍.

How do I make my private amethyst mutes public????
🤣
Use Mutable. 😉
Source code?
GitHub link in footer. PRs welcome!
Touché
Public muted are dumb. I hope all clients update to private. Unnecessary drama
100% agree.
Until they do, there’s Mutable.
Not gunna happen because Nostr is a platform for data harvesters. All these devs care about is making everything as public & transparent as possible for data harvesting to sell to the highest bidder. Everything except admin actions they perform on you & operator actions. Yeah it's a consumer publicity & admin private protection. So I doubt..
Karnage why you got me muted? I'm always nice to you.
Im pro public
I cannot genuinely thank you enough for this! u r legend for thinking this through 🫂💪
Private mutes are for cowards
Amethyst acts like I muted myself yet I'm not in the mute list so I can't undo it. I get frustrated seeing every single notification "hidden" because it's about a post "from a muted account" 😕.
Open your mute list inside Mutable and see if you find yourself on it.
You should also check if you reported yourself.
See if following yourself clears this. The following someone overrides any mute list.
Also, new version incoming to manage your mute lists better
Wait, it could be your hidden words. You added ICE and thus anything that has the sequence of chars ice in it will be hidden, like price.
Is that really how it works? It can’t distinguish words from parts of words?
Damus has or had this same issue with muted words.
nostr:npub1zafcms4xya5ap9zr7xxr0jlrtrattwlesytn2s42030lzu0dwlzqpd26k5 Is this true? Shouldn’t there be logic to only isolate and mute full words?
Yes, because most of the use against scammers focuses in specific hash numbers they use to annoy people, like blossom images.
nice👍
