Reposting could easily sub in for the habit of likes, but the client UX has to improve on how the feed displays reposts.

Need a way to consolidate reposts from multiple follows so you don't have to re-read the same content.

Reactions are more like a comment than a repost though. Adding a reaction doesn’t necessarily mean you like a note or want to boost it’s visibility.

hmm yeah I suppose if you look at it like that, but if it illicits a reaction maybe it's something that is valuable enough to elicit a reaction from others too

Reposts are my biggest annoyance with nostr clients

yeah I definitely see a lot of the same post on my feeds

Nostr clients need a mute reposts feature that collapses/shrinks repeat reposts in your timeline. Don’t fully hide them, just “minimize” them so you know it’s a repeat. Bonus if it adds a repost counter so you can track its popularity.

yeah this is pretty much what I'd love to see
