#[1] how do we make this better?
We can make the global Nostr experience better in Damus.
1. Improve language detection. There’s a lot of incorrect predictions on source language. Add the ability to choose from a list of languages to change the source translation language if it seems to have translated from the wrong language.
2. Fix bug with Unicode hashtags not being able to be parsed. For example, Japanese and Chinese hashtags don’t get picked up.
3. Add offline translation support for privacy-sensitive folks or those who don’t want to pay for translation services. Consider turning it on by default for new users.
4. There’s already a setting to show notes in only your preferred languages in the Universe feed but that actually limits global conversation. Perhaps we could add a setting to show notes in only your non-preferred languages to really broaden the global conversation if someone wants to opt into that experience.
5. Somehow encourage folks to follow users who don’t write in their preferred languages.
