I follow more than 1500 pople but I don't see anything from 99% of them unless I go to their profile page and wait for their content to load.

Why is that?

Is that the difference in our set of relays?

How can I set up my #nostr experience to really follow and see some users?

How can I mark some users to never miss their notes?

Use Amethyst, 😂.

Already using it

Hmm.

Ah Amethyst, that would explain it, for sure lmfao. 🤣

In all seriousness, it’s a problem with a lot of clients.

And some relay operators (such as damus) still have binaries that produce unexpected results with filters too. I don’t think relay devs were on the same page about this initially, but also, bugs were shipped into prod as well.

The ecosystem is young and mostly what you are experiencing is a result of that, for mixed reasons.

We will continue to build, and things will refine 🤝🏻 things have already come so far just in this year alone.

What's your suggestion to replace amethyst?

I have none.

I think the mobile clients on both platforms (ios and android) need better UX.

I’m mostly sticking with desktop for now.

Using the Conversations tab as much as New Threads?

No

But I'm sure there are a lot of npubs that I follow and post notes which I don't see.

I'm sure because sometimes I remember to go into their page to read what I missed.

Time difference? You maybe seeing only the recent posts maybe last 5-6 hours and likely missed posts beyond that? 🤔 Or not reading from relays that people you follow post to

That might be the cuase for part of the problem.

But I've tried to scroll for the hours I missed with no better results.

In my personal experience if I previously had interactions with someone, they are more likely to appear in my feed!

What is it if it's not algorithm?

Are you selecting "Follows" in Amethyst instead of "Global"

1500 people is a lot of profiles for each relay to scan and sort through, so they probably limit the results. Once you go to a profile, it zeros in on that particular content.

That explains a lot.

The npubs that I had any direct interaction with always load sooner and better
