I canโ€™t speak personally to being upset that you canโ€™t react to some people. You can react in other apps, that person likely just wonโ€™t see it.

I kind of see the new Damus approach as being like โ€œcomments are disabled for this videoโ€ on YouTube - but for reactions. I get an author may not want to deal with controversial comments below their content. Or even the time to read them - however other people will.

I guess being able to react, vs having it removed from other peoples app, experience is the key frustration.

Should any content be free from being able to respond to in an open web? Should a Nostrpedia page about abortion be able to be locked or reject replies/comments/whatever?

Itโ€™s complex, hard, and probably always a gray area.

I don't really see a problem if someone doesn't want to receive likes. You can disable the notifications, I can also assume an option on your side not to show it at all.

But, done this way, you can force the whole protocol and all other apps to remove it, I don't like that.

I don't like forcing, it's like when you mute someone is perfect. I think the current system is more convenient, you just don't hear them but you don't restrict their freedom to continue trolling ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Currently, the reaction feature is mostly used for likes, but it's not limited to that. Here are the top 30 reactions my node has seen in the last couple of days (with counts):

["+",259104]

["๐Ÿค™",141352]

Thanks for the info.

Which client is giving users the hamburger reaction as an option? I need it. ๐Ÿ˜‚

nostrgram.co/?nows=1 or snort.social / semisol.snort.dev

Looking at the data in my node, here's the list of "client" values seen in all reactions (kind=7 notes) my node has seen:

astral

BIJA

coracle

gossip

nostr_console

Since well-known client implementations like Damus aren't listed, I take this to mean that it's uncommon for client applications to tag their reactions.

To make a long story short, I can't tell from the data alone where the hamburgers are coming from.

All I know is that it is good to see I spark a debate. Itโ€™s an optional feature people can enable to test if wished.

Itโ€™s good, the community feels invested. This is key for when the cat is out of the bag and potential of Nostr starts to really show.

When we can start to say more and more โ€œsorry Sir, for that better use Nostr. Canโ€™t really do it on legacy web. No need for shitcoins thereโ€

โ€œNo need for shitcoins thereโ€ I love it ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
