👋 checking in from Henhouse, a #ditto server for women!
Will I soon be able to spin up Ditto server and create a community without giving up my NIP-05? Or that's quite far down the roadmap?
You can actually be the admin of a Ditto server regardless of which NIP-05 you set! For example, even though Henhouse.social is the NIP-05 I use, I'm also an admin of Ditto.pub (and have a NIP-05 there, too, that I can use switch between any time I wanted).
The downside of doing this is just that your posts won't show up in the local timeline (which filters for those with a NIP-05 that match the Ditto server domain). But if you don't care about then I think that you can do it today!
Ah hah, got it! I would want my posts to show in the timeline since I'd be both the admin and the discussion kicker-offer. Could the timeline filter for something else indicative of approved placement in the timeline?
Ah I see! Actually you are getting at something I've been thinking about. I'd like to give admins the option to make the "local" feed show anyone who was *approved* for a username on that domain even if it's not the one they currently have set on their profile!
This would solve your problem because you could just grant yourself a NIP-05 on that domain, but then choose not to set it.
I'm not 100% sure I've convinced the rest of the team this is a good idea, but if there is a demand from users that's good to know! So for now the best I can say is... stay tuned? 👀
Yes that would be perfect! I was thinking of a something like lobbying the Nostr-verse for a NIP-5.1, where you can add multiple NIP-5.1s to your profile to denote memberships in communities (so as not to encroach on the NIP 5.0).
But being approved for a NIP-05 that you simply don't use serves the same purpose (admin still has to put your npub in the well-known json, all that.) Plus your green-lighting by that community would not be visible on your profile, which might actually be better.
Good idea, convince the team, I'll use it!
I'm sending this convo to the chat right now! 🔥🔥🔥
Ps. Try searching "domain:ditto.pub" on the people tab of Discover 😁
