I was thinking about age verification on social media. This is not good because we don't want to do KYC and age verification, but meanwhile the child safety is important. The solution as we know is to expect the parents to take care about this.

I believe we need a set of nostr clients that are for child's. They can support good protection about unknown keys and let the parents to have control over contents show to them and relays they use, somehow.

Even some relays can focus on this topic.

Meanwhile when they have a space as social media, we have an opportunity to teach them what is Nostr, why it even exists, why free speech matters and more in a gamified way.

What do you think? 🤔

I definitely think we need this. Been trying to think through how to do it and private relays would be wise. Something where a parent joins and then can set up an account for their child. A well designed client would also be necessary and something that strickly limits the UI.

Another aspect that would be beneficial is multisig npub setup which I don't think we have yet but would be great for co-managed accounts.

Yes, that's it. Rather than relay, it could be handled in clients like only show posts from specific npubs, maybe. Or a combination of relay and clients setup.

The whole point is safe content + education about social media and free speech.

Its great! I'll be happy to see more about this. Also that naddr is not resolving for me. 🤔

It should not be difficult to make a whitelist only client, meaning you do not see anything unless it is from a whitelisted npub. A bit more tricky is to give only parents control over changing the whitelist. So like a dual app for parents, which has an access to the whitelist and can modify it.

But at the same time, why bother. They will quickly figure out that they can access all of nostr from any other client. Every phone has a web browser.

Yes, basically an app for parents or some NIP that let an npub to control another npubs following list for example may work.

About finding out stuff in other clients, it's mostly something related to the parents and how they manage to keep them safe from the bigger internet space!

For us, it's important to give this safety control to parents, not government and KYC.
