If you ask for feedback and the immediately get defensive when you get it, please just don't ask ok?
Discussion
Or ask for suggestions and then shoot down all the suggestions 🤡
But if they’re really shit?
Then asking for suggestions or feedback is not for you.
You don't know that beforehand though don't you.
You should know your own personality at least. But I guess if you have the personality of someone who would react poorly to critique after asking for it, you wouldn't be aware of it 🤭
I’m one who cannot deal with critique well. Trying to improve. It’s a process.
But when I ask for it, I assume I’m grateful that someone took time and thought. Or I try to be. I hope…
Any piece of critique is like a gift. It pays to be polite and thank the person who gave it to you.
But you're in no way obligated to use a gift, and you don't have to act on any feedback or suggestions you get from others.
"Smile and say 'Thank You.'" on reception. What's more devastating to a gift giver is not to be berated during the giving, but to learn much later that you never kept the gift at all.
Feedback welcome here. 🤙

This looks good! A few minor things:
- Show loading on state transitions that take time
- The headings in the editor in dark mode are pretty low contrast
- Loading takes quite a long time, unread and dashboard never complete
- Sort of weird to make the home page the user's own articles
- Kind 30000 might not be the best choice for a subscribers list, you might want to pick a new kind that's not used for other stuff already
Thanks! Do you know of any kind that might be a better choice for subscriptions?
Well, I'm not sure the mechanics of the subscriber list, so I would have to know more first. Normally only list owners can add things to a list, but here it looks like people can add themselves to the list? That seems like it would be out of scope even of NIP 51. If you're using it like a normal list though, I would just pick a new 3xxxx kind that's not in use.
Oh yeah. I’m currently using Supabase as a bridge, so an npub can just click that button and be done immediately. Next time I go to the Subscribers page, I’ll be prompted to add any pending subscribers to the kind 30000 list.
Case in point, I just went there and saw nostr:npub1n3rmk5g03eej40rg2x83azxnml879lxxynxegfawl36e6qqrs8gqllmkh7 subscribed. I clicked OK, he was added with a pending state, and then I saved the change to my list.


Interesting, so it's a way to approve subscriptions? Is it possible to add people to the list that haven't subscribed, or are clients encouraged to check the subscriber's events for an opt-in event?
Yeah, you can think of it that way. I was mostly trying to make it work since I couldn’t find a NIP specifically for subscriptions.
And yeah, I can add people to the list manually, just as I would be able to on listr.lol
Re: clients checking for an opt-in event — that’s where my client isn’t interoperable since I’m using Supabase. But I would be glad to refactor once I see a NIP for it. Guess I could just make something up right.
Yep, you might also look at how nostr:nprofile1qyxhwumn8ghj7e3h0ghxjme0qyd8wumn8ghj7urewfsk66ty9enxjct5dfskvtnrdakj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yh8qunfd4skctnwv46z7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uqzp75cf0tahv5z7plpdeaws7ex52nmnwgtwfr2g3m37r844evqrr6j8a5qgz did highlighter
Will do. Thanks.
