Nostr Web Client

Agreed, well said.

Nostr has tremendous potential. How long it will take to reach its potential is still unknown.

Dissing other social platforms only lead people to close down. People mindreading and assuming other people are chasing dopamine hits on other social media, is just frankly irrational overreach in conclusion.

Besides, what could possibly give a better dopamine hit than receiving sats on Nostr. Until we acknowledge that there are genuine challenges involved we won't make progress by assuming the worst of the people we are asking to join us here.

Finding content on Nostr is still a challenge. Finding good engagement on Nostr, unless you are part of a tight group of friends, can take time. Sometimes when I post, I don't know if anyone is reading my note, and I don't know if that's because the quality is not good enough, or if my reach is bad due to having the wrong relays activated, or something else entirely.

I think adding Lists to more clients can be helpful, I know some clients already have that. Finding content by search can be very hard.

Yeah I feel like there is a bit of 'people don't get it, cos they're can't handle freedom, they're sheeple, unlike me, I'm a free thinker, I can handle nostr' and not dealing with the real issue. I suspect and it's only a suspicion, that some people would actually be more comfortable with nostr only being the chatroom/telegram group it (sort of) is now. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I'm not clever enough to know any answers to your relay questions lol. But I agree that Lists are very useful. Similarly you can find people via group/community membership. Nostrudel .ninja is great for this, profile pages are full of info and possiblities for discovering new users. It also has Community pages support which also lists members of groups. Worth digging around there.

So for example there's the Art community, you can look at active users there and you might find topics/threads to join in on or whatnot...

you should have seen the conversation in my mentions from yesterday where pedophiles were arguing about the sexiest way to rape their own children ...

then tell me that the average person can handle freedom of speech ...

Twitter's head of trust and safety had to flee his home and hire private security when it came out that he did a PHD on basically fucking children ...

the average person doesn't understand the concept of freedom. to them freedom is just a positive sounding word.

just like "independence day" to them means cheeseburgers and "thanksgiving" to them means turkey and so on ...

believing that the average person will adopt Nostr is like believing the average person will switch from a Honda Civic to Honda CBR1000RR-R

i never even told anybody in real life that i was on GAB and GAB bans regular porn let alone pedophiles.

now that ( thanks to me ) pedophiles discovered NOSTR i will probably never tell anybody IRL that i am on NOSTR again.

first the Nazis will drive out the B!tcoin faggots

and then Pedophiles will drive out the Nazis

eventually NOSTR will be strictly for child fucking

10 years from now everybody on NOSTR will be basically a version of Hunter Biden

a Crack Addicted serial Child Rapist

Good suggestions.

I have one idea, not sure if it would work:

1. Let's say we can tag our note with for example: [Meme], [Picture], [Politics], [Sport], [Philosophy], [Photography], [AI-Art], [Art-No-AI], and so on.

One problem that we would face is bots falsely self-tagging their notes for unwarranted classification.

2. What if we could voluntarily embed into our profile, let's say 1000 sats as a deposit, and as long as we have that deposit there, we could utilize special tags for our notes that makes them easy to find and index based on those tags. The deposit would exist in a wallet that we could empty when we want, although then our special tag clearance would disappear.

There are certainly problems with this. How do we set a 'fair' minimum amount of deposit. Is there a risk that we alienate those who don't have 1000 sats to spare. What if the deposit was 10,000 sats. What if the price of Bitcoin increases so much that 1 sat is too high.

Just something to reflect on.

There are a fair amount of active users on nostr who don't really care about zaps, so it might alienate a few, sure a minority.

I suppose there are some clients sort of working on similar things, the community section of Nostrudel for example, will only show you posts from communities. Which are sorta moderated, or at least seem to currently be on topic (with no need for moderation probably except for spambots). This kinda functions as a tag. A few clients are focusing on this topic-based feed rather than twitter following people based feed. 🤔

Maybe that is kinda the same?

After further consideration, my idea probably can't work as I described it, due to the risk of bots instantly removing the deposit after posting notes with the special tags and then using those sats for the deposit of another account. If this was automated thousands of times per day, the resulting spam would still be immense and the special tags would be useless.

To combat this, the deposit needs to be locked in place for some amount in time before it can be emptied. Let's say that an account deposit must stay in the account for 7 days before it can be emptied.

If the deposit is, let's say,10,000 sats and we can't access it for 7 days, that would still be long enough to prevent bots from gaming the mechanic.
