Remember when #Nostr was going to solve the spam/bot problem?
I'd like to be able to charge a one time admittance fee for other handles to interact with my content (like, repost, comment), with my posts being read only until then.
I suspect that would eliminate most of the automated spam I run into on Nostr today.

I'd
Perhaps for reputable (Legendary) handles the fee could be waived.
Only after admitted would private messages be enabled.
🤔
Would be a great feature. There are less bots that get through on nostr:nprofile1qqs9xtvrphl7p8qnua0gk9zusft33lqjkqqr7cwkr6g8wusu0lle8jcpp3mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7qg7waehxw309ahx7um5wgkhqatz9emk2mrvdaexgetj9ehx2ap02g87q0 and the experience is way better than Damus
Mileage seems to vary. I don't have any bot spam on Primal at all, meanwhile others in the AskNostr feed clearly have a ton on Primal. I don't really use Damus, so I can't speak to that, but others are saying they have no spam at all on Damus:
For most clients, it's going to depend heavily on what relays you are reading from, not what client you are using.
A nostr NIP built like hash cash inbox like on yalls would be awesome.
For something like that to work, you would need to be able to select a relay to read from that won't accept posts mentioning you without the user paying first.
You don't have that option with Primal, because you can't configure which relays Primal reads from. It only reads from their caching server.
#Primal is just a full stack client; their backend gets your posts from your relays.
Yes, Primal's caching server aggregates my notes from the relays I have set up to write to. However, it does not allow me to read directly from the relays I want to read from. I can only read from Primal's caching server, which pulls in notes of other users from the relays they wrote to.
Therefore, any web-of-trust filtering on my read relays, or payment requirements for someone to post to them, are to no avail. Their note will be aggregated by Primal's caching server from whatever relay they post to, regardless of the ones I want to read from, and displayed to me.
Indeed, you can't even set which relays are read vs write in Primal, because they don't let you read from relays. They only let you write to them and read from the caching server which aggregates notes from all known relays.
I had a similar idea. It should cost 3 Satoshi in order to interact with a profile. 1 Satoshi goes to the profile you are following, the other satoshi to the relay and the other satoshi to the client app.
relays should also charge a couple of Satoshi just to connect. None of the free relays bullshit.
99% of spam would disappear.
