Well, first of all, my Nostr feed is super boring. It's all the same three posts over and over again.
LinkedIn shows me a bunch of posts on software engineering, and I'm nerd enough to appreciate that 🤓
Discussion
I kind of agree. I am interested in Bitcoin as a technology not as my lord and savior. It is just another way to transact and kind of a terrible one at that.
I also like nostr as a technology, but it isn't all I want to talk about. It has interesting features, but also kinda sucks. I want to see posts about people doing real thing like making chairs or rockets or starting families.
But my experience on LinkedIn has been even worse. All I see is clout chasing and recruiters who don't remotely understand the industries they are hiring for.
LinkedIn has a lot of that, but it also has some gems of genuine insight and humor.
Again, maybe I'm just nerd enough to appreciate LinkedIn posts lol.
As to Nostr, I want to get a reading group going on Alexandria once it's up and running.
I've been thinking about the proper place for a reading group and I was thinking that the kind 11 discussions would work well.
You could have a kind 11 containing a
["t", "readings"] tag, and then tags defining the book to be discussed, and we could group and sort by title or author.
Then I could make sure that they also appear grouped on Jumble Discussions, under "Literature" > "Readings".
Like ["subject", "Poetics"]
or ["author", "Aristotle"]
Then, you'd see new entries on Jumble and could respond to replies there, as well.
I like that. We can trial-run ideas on Jumble and view the threads in Alexandria later.
Yeah, the idea is that the two clients can ping-pong social events.
I already implemented this.
