If you are a nostr developer making a social client, please think twice before putting in any type of algo feed as the default. Basically, DON'T DO IT. Default to following and if you do wish to have algo feeds, offer them as an option in settings or dropdown or whatever, but don't default to it.

We have massive social problems already and much of this IMO is fueled by algorithms. Nostr is a fresh start, a chance to do it right. Don't fuck it up.

True that. šŸ¤™šŸ»

Why in the fuck do you think I’m here? You really think I want to do this I mean come on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Whatever these clients do they are already using algorithms even if it is 1:1 take and display that is already algorithm. They should be transparent about it and preferably give options.

yes!

do you have any community guidlines, reccomendations to read about nostr usage?

what are principals or values if there are such thing :)
