why not give the chance to the user to customise their trending/most zapped list?
let them have the control and ability to mute if they see so fit 🤔
You see, what nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj disingenuously calls "shadowbanning" is simply an inability to show up on Primal's trending list. That's all. Visibility of these users is not restricted in any other way. nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj knows this, and his use of this framing indicates that he is not engaging in good faith.
I totally agree with your point that it should be easy to check which npubs are filtered, and be able to override that. We are building those tools as we speak.
