Nostr Web Client

I would say the meaningful connections is the big thing.

I’m not 100% convinced about the WoT. I see at least 30 known npubs following cosmic whatever or tzongocu

If a friend you have from outside joins nostr, you follow him. Since you’re in most of the known wots already, then he is too. It’s follows and follows of folllows. Is that what you meant by your first question?

nostr:nprofile1qqsp2efvfxvyptu4hafd36unh77awd9e94q0y8zwh96tzf89n9740jcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhszyrhwden5te0dehhxarj9emkjmn9xega3j is an irl friend of mine. She's on my follow list. On any of yours?

Just because irl frens join, doesn't make up for all the shit-posting and replies I've made with y'all.

Newbies, whether having a boost or not still have to put in the work.

POW will create WoT 🫡

If only npubs who were here for a while didn’t just blindly follow tzongocu or the other bots 🙄

Hard to make WoT truly spam resistant

Don't concern yourself with weeds in another's garden.

I will cut my grass and plant my trees as I see fit 😎

My point is more that WoT can’t work if people blindly follow spam bots. Other than that I curate my own feed and mind my business 😂

I kinda see your point. But i suppose I just think the NOSTR universe will balance out if you care to let it 🤷

Less is more. And within #NOSTR, I can say with confidence; More is definitely less!

Totally agree. The less you follow, less chance there is of following a spammer. On the other hand makes it harder for newcomers. I guess there’s a balance to be found

I enjoy sussing out who's authentic. It makes interacting with frens here a lot more enjoyable.

Thanks for being a fren, friend 👊

You do make a solid point though. Most people I follow don’t interact. Only the real ones do.

Thank you for being a real one friend 👊🏾

Trim the fat 🤭🔥

Alright. Here's a social experiment. Only a one off. But lets welcome this new Nostrich and see how 'real' it gets.

He made this post and had a bunch of 'GM' back replies. Will he put in the work?

I find most new npubs i follow i'll eventually unfollow because they don't interact.

Narrator: no, he would in fact never open the client again

"In a surprising event, Ray joins NOSTR. Only to then realize he needs to type back. Not surprisingly the newly arrived pleb just keeps scrolling, missing out on yet another opportunity to be early."

Morgan Freeman or David Attenborough ?

Freeman is who I normally imagine, works well with the latter too though

He narrated some skits on some rap albums even 👀

nostr:npub162zpxufpw8pnuytaf0gfxzkqtvk9rvcwkvppa7x57y3n7qkfpg4shatdhy excellent album btw, if you’re into that style of music

I was curious lol.

Reminds me a bit of that ice cube album intro sort of. That album is a guilty pleasure of mine

21 savage is amazing

Will give it a chance. Not a lot of that style of music in my roto.

You don’t have to if it’s not your thing 😂

Curious about your process. Do you count reactions as interaction?

I definitely start with a glance at the profile. All reposts? No follow. More posts than replies, probably a no follow.

But mostly its just time and interaction. A feeling of such.

For example nostr:nprofile1qqsgyvxxygk755quz6xcw80yp57w6j2xk4sgdqa0fp4z9e25yejzvsgpzemhxue69uhkummnw3ex2mrfw3jhxtn0wfnj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7vd9kkq gave me a reply of his yard a year later. Real pleb sharing his life and replying.

At first glance nostr:nprofile1qqsytuv4el7t3jtjfm7zfrc9q730ked40806he7dx5uctxqk8j4hvfcprfmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuat50phjummwv5hkjmnzdauqzxthwden5te0wdjkuerfwshxummnvekxzun99e3k7mg7aaqrm seems like he could be just a spammer with his quick meme's. but when you listen to his replies, there is authenticity. Same with you.

I try not to follow to many high profile accounts. Like nostr:nprofile1qqsw4v882mfjhq9u63j08kzyhqzqxqc8tgf740p4nxnk9jdv02u37ncpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqg4waehxw309ahx7um5wghx6ctvd9hzummwds0xggvh will never follow me back and interact. And I'm okay with that. She's a busy lady and I read her newsletter.

But on the other-hand nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpr9mhxue69uhhxetwv35hgtnwdaekvmrpwfjjucm0d5q3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwwpexjmtpdshxuet5mm8xr7 replies to me sometimes and it is fun to get interaction from someone thats been highly influential in my life.

Then there is nostr:nprofile1qqs0wa4ucy38r0nel3cmv40ne0lt829pd8enacfntlxqcg5znyqa5jspy3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujummvv33kjare943xjarrda5kuetjwvhxjmnxduhszxmhwden5te0wfjkccte9ekkzemfvd3kjare9ekxjan99ugl224d who when i started following had only a few follows and has blown up due to his hard work. He replies and I can watch him grow in real time while enjoying his art.

Mostly it's about if I have fun interacting. If it's not fun it's not meaningful and your npub is cut 👌

So reactions don’t count. That’s what I figured

Reactions are hollow

…is 👆a reaxion?🤔🫣

…For those of us on the back row of the ⭕️ could u plz elucidate the difference between a reaction and a reply😖🤷🏽‍♂️

When you press the reaction button, that’s a reaction 😂

I pressed the comment button and added a gif.

🤔…at the risk and peril of much ridicule I must ask wtf is the reax button….is that like the like and zap button 🫣

It’s like the like button 😂

The like button

Likes > 1 sat zap

I don’t know about that

Hollow not equal meaningless...

Yes 🙌

🤔

…and would Mcd be considered a shabby reaction or a sh*tty response?😳🤭😂😂😂🫡⭕️

He does both. He also reposts a lot

🤔😳…and is a repost a reactionary response or a responsive reax or just a repost? …and what if it includes a zap or a like?

…what are the norms and etiquette here?🤷🏽‍♂️🤌🏽

…why does the nostr ux have to be so complicated? 🤨

…is this an issue for the council ⭕️ retarded or can simple devs be trusted to sort this out?🧐

…should I DM nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 and or nostr:npub16c0nh3dnadzqpm76uctf5hqhe2lny344zsmpm6feee9p5rdxaa9q586nvr

Don’t take it too seriously. You’re doing just fine 😂

…a reaxionary repost…🤌🏽🫡⭕️

Interesting approach. Been here for a while now and I’m pretty sure I follow some dead accounts who were quite active 3 years ago. Must get around to trimming it back. For follows, I try to use a combo of their level of interactivity and if they post stuff that is interesting to me. Agree with the constant reposters - that’s a good gauge.

Ya man. Reposts can be appreciated. But if thats the only play the gtfo of here 🤝

Too much reposts and you can’t see what the person has to say
