I like this.

I think Damus also displays the zaps like that, right nostr:nprofile1qy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwd4hhxarj9ec82c30qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qg3waehxw309ahx7um5wgh8w6twv5hszythwden5te0dehhxarj9ekxzmny9uqzqvhpsfmr23gwhv795lgjc8uw0v44z3pe4sg2vlh08k0an3wx3cj9ffz2xl?

But does your client make it so people only read replies from that specific relay? Because I think that's a step in the path to solving spam.

Yup 🎯

Apps reading from a set of relays defined by the Communities (or the App's goal).

Solves the global state problem too, at the local community level.

Yeah, I've never gotten the concept of using relays full of people I don't like.

We are allow-oriented.

* Everyone on the community relays is allowed.

* People on your lists, or events from query results, are also allowed. (We pull those from "fallback" relays.)

* Events from your local relays are also allowed.

Yup.

It's the UX around all of this "allowing" that I'm still working out rn.

We have community relays (theforest and thecitadel) and I integrate the person's local relays, and we have a set of non-spammy relays like aggr.nostr.land and nostr.wine, that I use to include npubs that aren't on our relays, but are on someone's lists (I just include all lists, including follow lists, and there's a filter where they can select which ones to include.)

The novelty is that I let you post notes as zaps, on a relay you normally can't write to. TheForest is closed to any npub who isn't whitelisted, but you can zap your way into the feed.

It's also interesting because people can like, comment on, repost, highlight, or zap your zap. Or report it. 😅 It just looks like a reply.

I've also thought about using zaps to upvote replies, into the zaps list, at the top. Like, cumulate the zaps. Then people could vote for the replies they like best, with money.

I'm experimenting with making zaps more functional, basically.

zapping your way in sounds fantastic!

That sets the lower-bound for zapvertising.

I might make it npub-specific, with an event (and my config amount as minimum, for spam protection), and display it on the OP:

** Zap-replying to this npub's notes will cost you 21/210/100k sats.**

We were always joking about that, like, You can send me your dick picks, if they come along with a whole Bitcoin.

But, like... hold up. Fr, tho. 🤣
