Yes!

What do you mean? Like reddit-style threads?

Twitter style, ability to add more context and content later. I love the concept of live threads, btw you are doing amazing job with satellite, I use it everyday specially it's media CDN.

Interesting β€” I guess I don't fully understand what makes a thread a "live thread" compared to how normal threads works already on the Twitter-style clients

thanks!

I think they mean threads like

Which is kind of unnecessary on nostr?

Oh I see, like breaking up an essay into a bunch of parts that you can individually reply to. I'm pretty sure Twitter got rid of the char limit (or maybe just for blue checks, not sure...)

I'm open to increasing the "surface area" for reactions on longer pieces of content. Perhaps the right approach for nostr would be working this into long-form content with a UI where you can respond to highlights

I prefer the long form to threads.

Downside is long form is lazy, often not concise and lacks clarity.

Yes, & we already use quotes for this which is not the right format. I mean, it has so many use cases. Just take an example of this post and in case of live events.

Threads as in instagram-Twitter? Or as in the thread system like Reddit? Or...?

I love both, I am talking about Twitter style, you have ability to add more threads later, something like live threads.

I'd assume that'd be handled by a client, right? Not a new NIP I'd assume

Not a coder but I'd think the logic is either:

A:

UserA posts Note0, posts Note1 as a reply to Note0, posts Note2 as a reply to Note1, etc. Client presents this as a chain/thread.

B:

UserA posts Note0, posts Note1 as a reply to Note0, posts Note2 as a reply to Note0, etc. Client presents this as a chain/thread.

I'd assume A makes more UX sense.

You’re probably right. But I still think the 90’s/2000’s message board chronological system with quoting was best because it felt like no message ever got lost in the chaos and ever my comment got it’s time in the sun.

When Reddit first started i noticed immediately less deep discussions and I think the UX encourages that.
