Nostr Web Client

Wrote a whole useful reply and submitted it and is no where to be found. Awesome.

Basically do both. Don't just do the Mindless scrolling of random conversations with no context and memes and cat pictures and bitcoin.

Make it a structured environment where people can have topic centered conversations and discussions and have communities. Where information is not just something you can socially engage in but come back for for reference later.

Think of Reddit post indexed and Google searches when you ask a question.

There's not very many places where you can do both such as Reddit you can be social and media scrolling mindlessly or you can engage in intellectual conversations and learn something and provide useful information to people about a certain topic.

There's only one Reddit there's no other places like it I feel like no sir would do a lot better if it emulated

^ This is going in my letter to Santa Claus :-D

True confessions: I still have a Reddit account. And another on StackExchange.

#hashtags are not my usual way of finding content.

But I also get the technical difficulty and resource requirements of running a modern indexing and search pipeline. We can't push this onto the relays, or soon we wouldn't have any.

It IS possible to do this in the client in a minimal way, but to be better than plain text search its going to have to be a pretty heavy client with a vector database (Milvus?) and a ML model (MiniML?).

Maybe I need to get better at using #hashtags. Its cringe, but old Twitter's "trending tags" concept could be reimplemented in Nostr clients. Build the ranked list locally as an indicator of what tags other nostriches are using, and a guide to what tags to add to ones own content. This can be gamed, of course, but Web of Trust narrows the scope for that quite a bit.
