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.
Yup, great examples btw sir!
I have not seen a proper solution for how to standardize the character count though. It could be real simple if we equate things like nostr:nevent1blabla, nostr:npub1blabla and blossom::/link/hash to fixed numbers of chars.
