Nostr Web Client

PSA

This place will likely be overwhelmed with trolls, morons, and angry and bitter people one day soon like all the rest. Muting will be a very necessary tool in your toolbox (and it even helps other with your web of trust), don’t forget to use it before getting angry and fighting with people trying to trigger you.

This is also how you can keep the vibe up indefinitely, curate your graph deliberately. Use the network, don’t let the network use you.

Truth. Curate your environment. Garbage in garbage out. Mute the garbage.

nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev Can you clarify how my muting of someone helps others avoid the muted and vice versa?

For the clients that show web of trust statistics. I think it was on coracle that it has a little circle with a number next to names. I got a message from nostr:npub1a2cww4kn9wqte4ry70vyfwqyqvpswksna27rtxd8vty6c74era8sdcw83a but noticed the circle had a -3 in it and in less than a second I knew it was an impersonator.

(Negative 3 means no one I know is following this person, and 3 people I know have muted this person)

I’m honestly shocked this isn’t a standard for every client. It’s one of the simplest and lowest barrier ways to deal with spam that I know of, that’s uniquely available in #nostr

For real. I’m making a list of features for clients that are optimal or recommended after being a new user on 5 or 6 clients in the last couple weeks. My recommendations are user-centric because I don’t know the protocol level too well. This seems like a big miss to not have this on the clients I’ve tried. I’m iOS and macOS. On what client have you seen it leveraged?

I believe Coracle is the only one I’ve used that has it right next to the username (kinda like the verified check), which I think is the natural place, imo.

I’m sure others use it as well but I don’t know which ones off the top of my head or in what ways they utilize it exactly.

I know Satlantis intends to use this extensively
