the circles were a cool concept

#β­• only works if it's emergent. Nobody is gonna curate multiple circles manually.

Okay fair, what's your opinion on the follow packs for nostr, can't those be viewed in the same light as Google + circles

circles were for sharing and reading. you organized people in a circle and when you shared content, you shared to that circle so they only saw that content. we have half of that functionality with a list or a follow pack. you can read from that list or follow pack, but you can't specifically share to it.

but as i said in another content, human curated lists are hard. i think algos handle it better than we ever could.

i.e. maybe i have a cool hiking pick that i wanna share to my hiking group, but you're in my bitcoin group, false, so you won't see it, even though you may like to see that pic.

absolutely. i really enjoyed them.

What do you enjoy?

organizing people and content into lists was powerful, though not always accurate since people don't always post the same content or want to read the same content. eventually we outgrew circles and most people just posted publically. but the organization of people into these lists were very powerful. i wish we had easy to use lists like that.

An afternoon of vibe coding and you could make a nostr+ clone with lists πŸ˜†

Nostr already has β­•

We need more circles.

circles were ahead of their time, imo, but i also think that trying to define content and put it into buckets for specific groups of people is also hard too. we can accomplish this better now with algos πŸ‘€

Circles sucked .. geo hashes rock :-).

Now that's a blast from the past

i still have a bunch of G+ swag πŸ₯Ή

This shirt is perfectly representative of the Google+ experience. πŸ’€

To bad that people didn't get it.

i had 4 million people that followed me back in the day on google+. it's what got me started with android blogging.

Google should revive plus on #nostr .

... been saying this for ever ..no one listen to an old elephant (:-

That shit was whack

I remember Google+ back in the day.
