seems to be a bifurcation of people who really hate it in their main feed and those who like it. Maybe pluggable algos is the way

I like the thought of pluggable algos, a way for everyone to adjust their feeds as they want.

I wonder if APIs exposing such algos could be a type of "layer 2" for nostr. Since relays already have databases of events they may not be too hard to build on top.

I had a different idea of using a domain specific language for doing Nostr queries. "Nostr scripts" that could be run by nostr clients to perform a specific sequence of actions for different views of your timeline.

Like queries that would get sent to relays, or this is purely a client-side thing?

(I may have misinderstood the convo here, I was thinking in terms of algos like say recommending new contacts or interesting posts, flagging fake accounts, search functionality, etc.)

purely a client side thing, a way of scripting queries, what to display, etc. no new layers or relay changes needed.
