It was a joke and then it wasn't.
Discussion
Ohhh 😲
Now it's opened the discussion about every potential metadata you can add to a profile, and whether each and every one should be in the spec.
Do these fields show up automatically in the profile? Even if they’re empty I mean? That would bloat the thing no?
No idea, probably up to clients. I really know nothing lol
Ah so it could be in the specs and the clients wouldn’t necessarily implement it
No, clients would have to add them. Like with any other field too.
So the point of it is to function as a sort of thing more liberal clients could point to and say 'hey we know what liberals like, we're not a nazi bar, ignore what bluesky says'?
Actually yes.
Nazi bar 🤣🤣💀
lol on bluesky they would probably ban us for saying that
Yet we cater to them. The irony 🤣
They often call nostr a nazi bar, it's a staple phrase of theirs
This feels like an episode of Black Mirror somehow
No it depends on the client to implement the field. My opinion is in line with nostr:nprofile1qqsw9n8heusyq0el9f99tveg7r0rhcu9tznatuekxt764m78ymqu36cpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuat50phjummwv5hszymhwden5te0wahhgtn4w3ux7tn0dejj7qg4waehxw309an8yetwwvh82arcduhx7mn99uuwx66a that the spec should be sparse and allow developers to add the fields they need.
