There are actually apps tackling these challenges, now, but almost everyone uses Primal, so their efforts don't improve any user's actual experience.

And using large aggregators, with no spam filter, to build the threads, is a strategic mistake. See it on Jumble. You get the feed looking good, and then someone clicks on an entry and it's bots, crypto spam, and penis all the way down.

The fear of not-displaying something on here is ridiculously high. Let's just have lots of different clients, instead, or start users off with a more limited feed and let them dial up the dickortunity. It's not only relays, that need some diversity.
