Yeah but only on that client and how would you know where they are posting from? It would need to be on a specific relay but then why not just post to a paid relay and just read from that paid relay. The barrier to posting is too low where other clients may not follow.

i don't understand how the whole network works in detail, all i know is i've never understood why you can't make a micropayment to post on social media, this would kill a load of spam and noise that plagues all social media

You can here but instead of paying every time you just pay once to use a paid relay. If you want signal, read from that relay only.

You could also make lists and just read from a list without micropayments. It’s more about what you filter out vs forcing people to filter in

Ok cool I'll research that

It has been mused. People also looked into Proof of Work as a way to cut down spam.

You can add pow to notes too and just pay attention to ones with pow but I don’t find it interesting

it needs to be a payment

Paid relay 😉
