Global Feed Post Login
Replying to Avatar jb55

If thinking in the nostr email model, this is like saying “why doesn’t my client autocomplete the address when I type bob@“.

Well why would it? What bob are we talking about? What email server is he on?”

A big part of what we’ve been masking in our clients is feigning decentralization via a centralized blob of relays. Thats what damus has been doing to make it friendly to users. But its a lie. There is no one global feed. If we want nostr to take off we need to change our clients and ux to stop pretending there is a constant set of relays that eveyone is on.

Damus is the worst offender here, i will start putting more effort into this front. nostr:note10d2l6p28q2q3p4jrv6xl4cp2wgq34wjmr34qsfjgagjy7l5qqtrshvxnj0

Email does do this, if the recipient is in your contacts. #nostr at least on amethyst, usually does not even if they are in your follows.

Yeah, this is a stage problem I've never figured out... we are talking about few hundreds elements. When it happens I usually open my followed list to refresh the cached contacts.
