Nostr Web Client

How would it be different than a client or solve the issue being stated (not seeing that many of your posts)? It seems to me that Nostr conversations (notes) have a lifetime of 30 minutes to 1 hour max. After that they rarely get seen or engaged with.

I don't think that's a problem. It mirrors the real world and conversations we have with people. Our conversations don't linger in the air for days so anyone else can walk into them and pick them up. It's an in-the-moment (or, in Nostr terms, Event-driven) model.

For those people you absolutely don't want to miss, NostrGram (for instance) allows you to create custom lists. You could just put the "most important" people into a list and load that list so you don't miss anything.

I'm certainly open to any other ideas though. I'm all for anything that makes the user experience better.

Thank you so much for your observations and thoughts about this.

Right now, I only know the problem but not the solution.

And I agree with all the things you said about lifespan of notes and I don't think that's bad

Perhaps it should be more like a summary of the user's personal feed. It could gather all the notes using the user's public key, and then a LLM could convert them into some kind of summary, creating a personal feed report for that user. More like there daily personalized newsletter. If it's making any sense 😅

However, I'm still not sure and I understand it's very complicated due to the nature of the content. I'm just putting these ideas out there so we can find a solution together.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Yes I understand what you mean. I'm not sure how it would be summarized, though. Maybe just the first posts of a user in some kind of scaled down form, or maybe just the posts that got a certain level of engagement or something (and therefore may be of particular importance). I'll have to give that some thought.

Yeah that's what I am thinking posts with a certain level of engagement like: zaps, likes and responses. Although it may not be perfect, this approach would be more efficient than summarizing all of the notes. I plan to test this idea and see if it makes sense.
