Everyone and their mother is looking at trending on Primal because they all use Primal and that's the first thing you see.

It's not like other apps, where you can just subscribe to a relay and the feed comes to life.

I legit can't see anything else on that app because I don't have follows and it doesn't show my relay feed. Which is why they auto-onboard everyone to a set list of follows. Including Odell. Which is why he is at the top and will remain there indefinitely.

Thank you for clarifying that for me.

In a sideways manner, if Primal is the issue...then they aren't Nostring, but a proxy of the experience. The onboarding makes up for that, I guess? 🤷🏻‍♂️

They're not fully-leveraging the protocol-defined architecture, but they say it makes for better UX.

It makes for a landing page with notes effectively pinned to the top, IMO. Makes it look like nobody else is active and keeps Primal users mostly off in their own ghetto, except for the occasional note from a normal user that inexplicably trends.

Sounds like ZBD-- (meaning, "not as bad") 🤣

and just below all those of the Selected, will be endless hordes of people complaining about the Selected
