Nostr experts out there. Is there a client that allows an experience like old school Facebook where you share only to your follows? Is this even possible with current Nostr protocol?

#asknostr nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqpzamhxue69uhhv6t5daezumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgswaehxw309ahx7um5wghx6mmd9u2mk7fe have any thoughts on this?

Not directly possible, but you could do group DMs, of relay based communities.

If you had a DM relay that looked or was tagged differently could to program it to send DMs to all your follows. Then filter those type of DM relays to be separate from the other DMs? Then you could create a feed of DMs that would at as a private shares feed?

Yep that would work

I'd like to build it into flotilla someday, but that's a ways out

This would require something like lockbox relays, which never really took off.

Your notes will only be visible to users that you follow, but they need to be using an outbox style client or know to look there. Replies are sent to read relays, so conversation will still move to other relays & become open as people respond and interact.

If you use the DM style how would anyone other thank the poster person see the replies? I expected that interactions would be limited if doing this on Nostr.

Lockbox isn't a relay for group DMs, as described in the other comments here. Notes written to it would show up only in the home feed of anyone who follows you that you also follow. It doesn't accept any replies. Those are sent to your read/inbox relays, which is where it becomes more open... unless you receive replies to one very strict inbox, which isn't very common.

I think it is as close to what you initially described as anything that is currently available, though.
