I figured as much. Iām liking this new profile pic though š Iām curious as to what goes on your mind when thereās a profile pic and name mismatch; is it nostalgia or something else?

for me itās all about pattern recognition
exactly this. brain too fried to come up with that this late š
Hey I think clients should let users override profile pics they see for others.
pfp edit history with the ability to use your preferred one for them mby
this is funny bc sometimes I see nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424āā old one pop up and Iām like ahhh, throwbackā¦ wait no just a relay glitch
somebody accidentally doxxes themselves, you can use it permanently as their pfp forever š«
oof, but yes, interesting concept tho
we can do this with ācontactsā on our phones, set pics for people, but canāt do it with our social media apps
if decentralization is giving users more control/power then it might also be used to fight spam, since users could create the pfp and associate it with the npub š¤

Makes sense. I am not sure how to code though. Pet names and pictures on the contact list?
The downside of pet names or a customizable contact list is that if you know someoneās real name, you may accidentally reveal their name to others.
damn good point
tbh, iād just like to pick peopleās pfp based on their pfp edit history, thatās all
for pattern recognition sake during scrolling
I like being on a first name basis. More personable and eliminates the risk of trying to hide, but I respect each persons preference š¤
what about just pfps saved local?
I can totally do this by integrating with ios contacts
Would that change Damusā App Privacy?
huh? How so
I think he just means you will have to request access to contacts
not sure, I donāt need access to the entire contact list. There should be a way to just add data to existing or new contacts.
Afaik contacts on iOS is one permission which is read + write, theyāve only just separated the photos read + write on the iOS 17 beta but Iām not sure if contacts are affected too
I noticed that about the photos, very cool.
Yeh tbh I like the way theyāre going, Snapchat is a shit app though which uses permissions so weird so it doesnāt work by defaultš¤£they need to update and use native I think. That app tries to make itself an android app I stg, design language, backend and all
