I meant the h-tag that mentions the community on the relay your publication is targeted at.

I need a tag like that mentions the targeted relay, because I think communities should be straight up relays anyway: nostr:naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzp22rfmsktmgpk2rtan7zwu00zuzax5maq5dnsu5g3xxvqr2u3pd7qyt8wumn8ghj7mnfv4kzumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejz7qq0wd5k6urvv4ch2etnw35k7mnnuywg0l

Yeah communities are a ghost town, but they do have a handy tag at the top of the post to tell you where the note has come from, similar to followed hashtags (on amethyst at least).

I just feel so out of my depth with relays lol. Say you are following 20 topics, you would have 20 relays? How would I post to just one relay? Maybe it would be similar to posting on a community on Nostrudel, where you select from a drop-down menu? But yeah the difference being it wouldnt also post on your main feed? I have no idea lol

Yup, the "Share your post" part is an important part of the UX.

In what I'm buidling out it's literally a step you **cannot** skip.

(like in 💯 normie -friendly Instagram)

By letting the Community take care of being the Relay, Blossom media server, etc... it's okay to be out of your depth with all those technicalities. It's all about targetting content to the appropriate audience.

Yes, you could just select which relay you want to post to, from a drop-down menu in the note-writing form. Amethyst and Habla.News already have this. You can select your relays during the publication process.

Hzrd already said that he wants to move to relay-selection, but that it'll take awhile, as he'd have to rewrite so much code.

The problem I face is that my communities list keeps being nuked by some client, someplace, so every time I want to select a community, when writing, the drop-down list is blank. 😅🙈

Gave up, but this could be fixed.

They often disappear for me on amethyst, but clearing cache brings them back. But mostly given up posting to them anyway lol
