Japanese people are talking with a connection to a relay for Japan.
These relays are difficult to access from outside Japan.
There are many jokebots on the Japanese relays, and most conversations are only possible on the Japanese relays.
Japanese people also talk on timelines. It is like a global chat, not like a forum.
ok but there must be using the protocol different because they should be tagging the replied to note and then that would show as 'not found' if we couldn't get it
as for not getting out from or getting access to in japan this would be trivial given nostr, for example just mirror them on another relay
its not good if japanostr is only using one relay too
global chat? do they have a chat interface? what app are they using?
what are the japan relays btw?
People use relays in different ways.
Global relays are often spammy. Also, Japanese people mainly speak only Japanese. Only a small percentage of people watch global relays.
Relays for Japanese are for Japanese IP addresses, and access may be restricted from some countries.
Please look here. This is what Japanese people contribute to Nostr.

Here is a compilation of several relays, web services, etc.

so using relays in very specific ways is not needed and against what i fell is core #nostr thinking, you can of course do it that way and people will but that is #fedi thinking and no surprise nostr:npub108pv4cg5ag52nq082kd5leu9ffrn2gdg6g4xdwatn73y36uzplmq9uyev6 is that way inclined or nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn
you can handle #spam and isolate a feed quite easy with #filters , i mean for a #japan feed you just need to look for the chars
given even in japan nostr is going to grow huge you will end up needing the same tools we are all using so it would be wise you stay with the main lines of dev so we can amplify our efforts while we are still small
thanks for the link btw
geofilters are lame as well, not hard to bypass either
