This app does not work. I hear you guys promoting it on podcasts but when people come here and try it and find you can’t even add followers it’s not a good look. If the devs want it to compete with x make sure its basic functions work…. Implement the same features and algos that twitter is using and ppl will come over here if it truely is censorship resistant.

🤣
How / why do you compete with something else while also having the same features?
UI?
🤣
If it looks exactly the same, and feels
exactly the same, all I have to do is say we have feature XYZ the other lemmings app doesn’t have and the herd will flow over for a year or three 😂.
By implementing the features everybody wants and uses those other apps for but improving upon censorship and shadow banning….? The censorship resistance is this products USP.
Nostr as a protocol had to sacrifice the ability to implement many of those basic-expected features in order to provide a basis for the unique features that it does implement.
Consistent follower lists are not that hard to implement. It amounts to one NIP. It's getting everyone to agree that is the hard part.
We could say the same about USDT zaps.
Not sure about that. USDT zaps are very complex as you are mixing two chains, two protocols and two layers. Client consistency can works in a single NIP as NIP-05 has proved.
I mean USDT over LN zaps (via taproot).
But zooming out, when new people come over I think not being able to delete posts in the same sense as Bluesky or X is a big one. Granted that screenshotting exists and things cache all that—but there is still a deleted-enough threshold that people expect.
It has boggled my mind every day since day 1 that nostr identity is based on bitcoin taproot. Yet none of the clients use bitcoin taproot. Seems a waste and I dont quite understand why. There must be something deeper at play.
It’s a odd one. Having kind0 events under a most-recent-overwrites logic is strange. Replaceable events in general I've never understood. Seems like a worst of both worlds situation.
I don't see normal everyday folks complaining about 30day bans. Only non NPC characters care.
Luckily, the Mute button works…
What are you even saying 😂
Algorithms.... Feed your monkey brain 🧠
and when you routinely don't see content that was posted but can open up damus or nostur and see the content not displayed on primal it makes the whole experience frustrating
Must try Nostur now.
Never trust anyone who uses "ppl" ( sic ) because it means he types with two thumbs and hasn't really learned about technology other than it's something you pay for.
You curate your own feed here. Yeah okay adding followers might be a bit of a pain at the moment but if you want the same mind numbing algorithms stick to Meta or X
I see you!
And algos twitter has...
Sigj.

We are too early.
Nostr is not an app, it’s a protocol. Primal is the client (app) I use to interact with nostr and it works just fine. If you want it to be the same as X, you might as well stay there. I like it here better.
most of us don't want the same algos that Twitter has!
I don't understand the part about adding followers. How does someone add followers on any platform? Attract, yes, but add?
Which twitter... old twitter or X? Because those algos changed then in that switch AND again and again later.
ok.
the solution is simple. take your retard normie word salad, go back to x, and stop coming here. 🙂
problem solved!
No algorithms. No advertising. If that's what you think makes an app work, you're drowning in a debt based world while we are building a wealth based world. To each their own.
the choice of using an algo would be nice tbh
You are your own algo..DVMs exist too.
Following.space
If you want an algorithm that controls what you see, that's up to you. I don't want to see them applied on any apps that I use.
Even as an option?
Why would I want someone else to control what I see on my feed?
To help you.
As long as you can see that the answer is subjective, it's fine. If I'm following thousands of profiles, I might want search algorithms that can help me narrow down my feed based on subject, or locale, or whatever criteria. But the use of such algorithms needs to be under my control, not turned on by default.
You are your own algo.
Thate the point kinda
