so it's like a curated blog

Yes, with a baked-in feature that it is not limited to one author/npub. A curated collection of lists.

so in nostr terms it would be kind 30004, but instead of just being a static list it's also a filter, making everything more difficult

In nostr terms it’s nested curated publication events, kind 30040, like Alexandria uses, to define the magazine and its categories and possibly subcategories, and those contain a sorted list of articles. It functions as a folder structure.

the problem is that the event type has a filter that the client does and not the relays, because you have ["type", "magazine"], but you can have an event that is only for magazine and that follows for that specific one, so it'ok.

It is probably already possible to do what I say in Coracle, this is an example https://njump.me/naddr1qvzqqqrujgpzqkfzjh8jkzd8l9247sadku6vhm52snhgjtknlyeku6sfkeqn5rdeqy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qgkwaehxw309ahx7um5wgkhyetvv9ujuctswqhszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9ekk7mf0qythwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnnw3skkete9ehx2ap0qqfrqvfc8ymnyv3jxqcnqvphxcenjvehzzdp38

I’m not sure I follow. As far as I can tell, you’re saying that there are multiple ways available already to achieve a curated list on nostr. I’m aware. I just like this one for all the possibilities I can see for this and I’m trying to implement them to see if it will work out as I imagined. The root index event that describes the magazine is replaceable and can be updated whenever and the npub that created the magazine can also publish an RSS-like nostr feed.

An editor or publisher would create a magazine npub first, then the events, instead of publishing with their own npub. And the root event can be used as a reference to build out the whole magazine either with my client or a custom web interface in any style.

if you create a new npub it's the communi-keys approach, (I'm not saying this to follow this or that), but as difficult as it is https://nostrhub.io/naddr1qvzqqqrcvypzp22rfmsktmgpk2rtan7zwu00zuzax5maq5dnsu5g3xxvqr2u3pd7qqxxxmmdd46ku6fdddjhjucmuj5a3

Nusa has extensive experience with index events and isn't intimidated by the hierarchical structure.

Communi-keys have their own thing going on. It all overlaps on some level, but my focus are publications. I’m aiming at a special purpose interface that is clear and useful, specialized for this one thing - creating magazine style publications.
