I love the chronological timeline. But one thing I think can be improved upon is boosts.

Boosts tend to happen right after someone posts an interesting note. This limits the reach to those who are on Nostr at that moment. If I boost a note by Jack right after he posts, it has no benefit because everyone is following Jack anyway.

But what if we could schedule a delayed boost? Similar to how I can adjust a ⚡️ amount or anonymity. Hold the 🔄 button and boost in an hour, or at a certain time. This would help filter good content to reappear in people’s feed no matter when they log on.

I had a drama-free TL on Twitter. I've never blocked anyone for their post/ muted keywords (except one).

To me, it had (has?)

1. The best discovery mechanism for events, people, art & literature, random but cool stuff like pudding.cool , Longform's Best of lists

2. Voice of people from different countries. I loved people posting about their daily meals/commute/weather. I could appreciate the everywhere sameness of the banality of life

3. Multiplicity of views, with nuanced discussions if one has the patience

I liked it as it felt like a treasure hunt😅. The algo still works but having lost a bit of its quirkiness 🤷‍♀️ (plus ads on reply threads 🙈).

Oh oh I know!!! We should be able to set a time limit like on zaps of WHEN we want to boost a post!!!

Boost post in 5min, 10min, 30 min, 1 hr, 1 day.
