lists work just fine for that
Discussion
We have the building blocks to make it work, but we don’t have a set of standards so multiple apps could use them, a few apps could help create them. We also don’t great lists in Nostr as a kind of object you can see, inspect, share, clone, etc…. could easily be done, but we haven’t done it yet.
I agree, no more NIPs for this. Plenty of composable parts already (lists, curated relays, hashtags).
Ideally client devs focus on retention metrics.
If not third-party community members could target new users through initial profile events or first post actions.
I guess many users would happily contribute lists and relays for noobs.
