Arc seems nice. Tested it a while ago but haven’t used it since.
Well, should you really rank something in a chat room at all?
Discussion
Not a chat room.
But, it could be used as a channel, posts and comments setup.
Subreddits/topic = kind 41
Posts = channel messages kind 42
Replies to posts = kind 1
Ranking posts and then replies can make sense once you have enough volume.
interesting, is there anyone building such an application today?
I don’t know of anyone.
It seems that since Jan, everyone has been focused solely on the kind 1 use case (for client apps), and all channel/group stuff went on hold.
There are some tough issues to solve like how would moderation work. I know we have a count kinds defined, but you really need to be able to delegate moderation, not just have a channel creator or something.
And I only mention moderation because things like off topic posts and other stuff are painful without some kind of moderation. If you don’t like that channel, start your own.
Like an /n/AIArt would be an awesome channel. Posts are new images. Maybe a media gallery view type. Zaps go to poster. And comments or conversation fits below. Like stacker news for example.
Yeah I remember the Dall-E channel on Anigma went crazy when Dall-E were made available to the public😂
Channel moderation is an important point. NIP-28 defines muting messages and users but that doesn’t hold up in a big channel.
