Sure, but i still think the 'take the feed/perspective' from an npub, something appearently primal already lets you do, is the most straight forward. In most cases you got to Nostr via someone, so just addopt their perspective as a bootstrap.
I wonder if this interaction feed helps with initial onboarding.
1. You post to #introductions
2. You get some initial interactions from nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 welcoming you
3. You like or reply to their post
4. Then all of a sudden you have an initial derek feed even if you haven’t followed him
5. You look at notes and replies, and see derek chatting with a few people.
6. You open a few threads and like a few more posts.
7. Your feed starts to populate more from people who had posts you liked.
Seems like a nice organic way to onboard people who might not think about following?
We could use this interaction feed combined with the follow list if the user isn’t following many people at the start 🤔
Discussion
Well, about any client already supports this in the sense you can log-in with an npub; but i mean you do effectively the same thing whilst being logged in with your own nsec, and can just follow, comment, post, like etc.
default follow lists are so bad though because they rot, people leave
Perhaps you misunderstand, because i am not talking about 'default follow lists', i am talking about me being able to addopt your perspective in 1 click (maybe 2, or 3 but you get the point).
The way primal has it implemented is far to hidden, but case in point:
Yeah thats a decent idea. I always liked the idea of an impersonation mode, where you can view the app from another users perspective, and when you follow someone it adds to your follow list.
Oh wait, you mean how follow lists work by default....yeah well with this + dvms + just browsing, users should have all the tools not to have a stale experience from the get go, no?
