Or “last seen”?

No

why?

Why do you need to know? Why does it matter?

Maybe like “active today”

Or “active thie week” but not live

I think it should just say recently and not an exact time. Exact time seems like a privacy issue. Maybe as an opt in?

I agree with this

where does “recently” start and end?

Set time like business hours 😆

“I’m here to shit post and #zap between hours of …”

now it sounds like a second-hand LinkedIn 🤣

🤣 I hate that website,

Fucking useless piece of shit

agreed 💜

💀 🤣

Yes especially when we get encrypted DMs

What are the benefits and drawbacks to having it shown in your opinion?

Those things feel kind of fiat

why so?

Gives high availability, urgency etc feelings

Simple is the best I think.

For it or against it? 🤔

I am against it.

Fiat is fubar

fubar?

Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition

⚡️

It is said to be a term that comes from World War II and refers to any situation, or person, that has gone wrong and there is no possibility of repair.

It's fubar you don't know what fubar means 🤣

🤙

Total snafu.

what is snafu? 😄

I'd have to say that that is fucked up beyond all recognition.

I just taught him about Funyuns the other day

this is true 💜

Woah 🤤

Damn, never even seen those 🤔🤔

no thank you ❤️

why not? 💜

same reason I turn off read receipts and typing indicators.

it feels invasive to me personally.

any features or functions to the online status, that would make you consider it?

personally? nah 🫂 🕺 🌞

agreed 💜

Perhaps a choice for us to turn on or off ect?

No thank you. If it’s offered as an option you should be able to turn it off.

opt-in or opt-out?

Opt-in if you’d like to be shown on note. So many people are privacy minded here it shouldn’t be default. Honestly I don’t see it being a popular option. So I wouldn’t take the time to build it. Just my 2 sats.

its ok only if you can toggle on/off its too much like whatsapp so ?cid=2154d3d75vwot2q9gviyw9i8veko6yi6na03o1czv6xj241o&ep=v1_gifs_search&rid=giphy.gif&ct=g

Any conditions or features that would make you want to have it?

not really, id rather damus have better search & less crashes

afaik, it’s in the works 💜

I don’t like the idea. How would that be useful?

What don’t you like about the idea? Just gathering thoughts and perspectives here 💜

It is intrusion of privacy

nope

why not, anything that would make you want to have it?

No, that’s not a feature I would want to have. Wouldn’t be a deal breaker, just to be clear, but I like to be able to open Damus without announcing to the entire world that I opened Damus.

Nope.

This isn’t a chat app

If SimpleX gets implemented to Damus for example, it will be

In this case would be interesting to have a button choice by the user. Like WhatsApp.

a toggle button to opt-in?

Yeah… at least would be a choice.

Would you want it to be only in the DMs or also shown on your public profile with the opt-in?

Only on DMs.

Only if I can set a minimum zap amount to view :P

Want to see when I was last online? Zap my profile for X amount of sats 😂

Otherwise, nah. Don’t see the value in it. Especially for a community that 99% of the time wants privacy.

I suppose you could make it something that can be turned off/on, but again, what’s the value statement?

No. Definitely makes the experience less peaceful

Agreed 💜

had a discussion in this thread nostr:note1ueh9w2zqwcgtjvsn67m4qjzjns3q68c32hyaaaclvn9r6d02ms8qj0ka87

Hmm… well “Last seen” is a little misleading. It looks like Nostur maybe is just displaying the time that has elapsed since the last Nostr event it detects from your npub? At least that’s what I gather from a quick test. If so, that data is there and public. This just utilizes it in the UI. I’m a bit indifferent to it, but I don’t like calling it “last seen” because that’s not what it is. It’s more like “last event” or “last activity”. I could browse all day and never post or like anything, but technically I’d be “on” Nostr.

FYI:

Ok yea that makes sense and sounds like what I thought it was. Would it be more accurate to label it differently though? Something like “last activity on your relays” but that’s obviously too long a label 😂 Maybe I’m overthinking it, but I was confused as to what it actually meant.

I think as little public data as possible would be best.

I prefer not to.

Agreed 💜

Put it as default but you can toggle off and remove these indicators if you want to

Why not a toggle between them both + a option to disable completely?
