The Deep State is trying to censor me 🤣
Another person who is sometimes impossible to find, even using search, is nostr:npub1wqfzz2p880wq0tumuae9lfwyhs8uz35xd0kr34zrvrwyh3kvrzuskcqsyn

Maybe this is why none of my OPs get any interaction until someone else boosts them.
They were supposed to make us uncensorable, not invisible. 😂
I wonder if ReplyGuy and the switch to WoT relays reduced the average reach of any given note.
🤷🏻♀️
You don't exist, basically.
Compare to
UnPerson.
Perhaps it's because I primarily write to auth-protected relays now, and nostr.band can't or doesn't see those.
My current outbox list: 
TheForest is not AUTH, tho. It was only AUTH for a week or so.
Wine is the only search that can find you.
Band can find your npub, but not your name.

Just think: almost a thousand followers and one of the most active and interesting npubs, but someone new will not be able to find you or see your notes, unless someone else boosts it.
I'll have to add one of the megarelays to my outbox list I guess, to get visibility.
What's wrong with the JSON?
Nostr.band doesn't index username, apparently, so we have to enter a space, like "Michael J".
Which makes you impossible to find because mentions don't work with spaces.
I'm legit wondering if I'm being shadowbanned by the trending algos because even my really popular stuff doesn't trend, but there's stuff trending, that has 2 replies. 🤷🏻♀️
Maybe I angered the Nostrsoft gods.
lololo same same!
Perhaps it's because inbox/outbox isn't properly implemented anywhere. If you don't write to the biggest relays (and you don't, you write to TheForest and a few others, and let broadcasting carry your notes to other relays), other people who are using the big relays will lose your posts in the noise.
TheForest is using negentropy, so you can see what's going on in the rest of Nostr, but they can't see you—I don't think most relays are using negentropy.
The way it probably _should_ work is everyone has a large number of "app relays." Those store your profile data so you can move seamlessly between clients.
Everyone should have a smaller number of inbox relays, probably mostly topical or community-based, but anyone who wants to @ you would just post to one of your inbox relays and you'd see it immediately.
Lastly, I could imagine needing only one outbox relay. Your profile lists the outbox, so people know where to find your posts.
In a follow-based feed, the client should be smart enough to query different relays based on your follows' outbox lists.
Yeah, probably have to write directly to megarelays, to be seen.
The note simply residing on the relay has no effect, apparently.
It’s a good problem to solve. It can be partially ameliorated by publishing your relay as part of a nip05 profile. Clients should be smart enough to figure this out and pull down your events.
In many cases, you might not want the world to know about where you publish your events. That’s ok, too.
And I don't mean Top Ten. I mean Top Hundred trending.
I have threads with over 50 replies from a bunch of different people, and you can scroll trending for hours, but never see it.
You can't see me, unless you are already following me, basically. And, sometimes, not even then.
