What's the likelihood of relays implementing `g` (Geohash) and `r` (URLs) tag filters as prefixes?
Discussion
I don’t think Relays should implement filters but it should allow Apps query ability to implement their own filters and tagging in app layer. Apps should also implement hash validation of notes otherwise Relays will take data integrity lightly
What's the use-case? o.o I can see geohash being used to further lock down where a posted image was from by applying it to the post - but what is "r" ment to do exactly?
R allows apps to follow urls. So, when users post with a url, it can be searched by it.
The question is about prefixes. If I am interested in amethyst.social, i can follow it. But I want to follow all possible amethyst.social/* addresses.
Same for Geohashes
Thinking the same Vitor...
Doesn't look likely that relays will support prefix/wildcard queries soon... so I resort to adding multiple geohashes for all precision/zoom levels
E.g. for Nevada geohash "9qu", map apps need to add tags: ['g', '9'], ['g', '9q'], ['g', '9qu']
