I see. That's almost like a hashtag + a non-relay based algo.

With a #communikey you can do that. If you're very lax in your moderation (only focusing on proper topic + nsfw etc...) and you let the community keypair bring in appropriate content.

there are a bunch of important differences:

- can only post in one community at a time.

- separate follow list for communities you’ve joined

- communities have a name, banner, and description and can only be created once (name is immutable, non addressable)

- size of community is counted by number of people who have that community id on their community follow list.

- community posts have a distinct design (shows the community name on top like in X)

- community can have addressable data associated with it via the creator or frost creators (sidebar info like on reddit)

1) this can be a requirement of this #communikey → you can only post here and not target anywhere else

2) Yup, I will not even make those "Follows" a list, but labels instead (so apps can't mess up the list with each edit, etc...)

3) Interesting, can't give you that (yet)

4) Yup, can do that

5) All my UI widgets display the targeted Community(ies)

6) Yup

That immutable + non-addressable need is something i'll have to sleep on

I think the community name changing would be confusing, i think immutable is good for the community creation anchor. Description could be overridden with the addressable event, but name can’t change

Then basically the largest community for a given name would be the defacto “reddit community” for that identifier

Makes me think of maybe tying it to the wiki name for it. Dunno.

Niel Liesmons 9mo ago

Yeah, that's a very good point.

If you think of something, let me know. I'll be ruminating too :thinking:

What if…

Implicit communities

if the name is the d-tag is immutable...

jb55 9mo ago

i wanted it to have a persistent sha2 id though, otherwise it's not clear which "bitcoin" community you are referring to

il_lost_ 9mo ago

it would be like a channel and with nip-72 group it would be a "discord" like, a site like https://asknostr.site/ browse tags like "reddit", it has no community, but you said "simple"
