Having more opinionated event kinds really helps clients show specific types of content without having to filter out the stuff they don't want. that said I'm not sure if I would get as specific as square images, but it would be cool to see if something like that could work
I am becoming an "opinionated event kind" maxi. Nostr kinds could be designed for specific user experiences instead of general types. Like the picture kind Olas uses. Right now it accepts multiple image sizes but we could have one kind that only takes squared images for those clients to use.
It's similar to nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqdergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsr4ma0r 's pitch of kind 1s with a 240 chars limit. We could copy kind 1 into a new kind whose expectation is to render only the first 240 chars of content and ignore all the rest. We could have Nostr clients that only render (and make the best UI for) those events.
