why did you get shadowbanned? maybe because you dont have a nip05?, or your username is same as a banned spammer’s username?

I don't care why, or about any nip nonsense.

These #primal arses are not going to make me jump through the same hoops X twatter gang did with their "verification" and account suspensions, while falsely advertising nostr uncensorable this and decentralised that.😡

My goal at the moment is to ban primal.net from my feed, because of my sms01.

calm down ser, just stop using primal and try other client/s

Why do you think you need to insert yourself in this thread, if you don't know the answer to my question, sir?

cuz i do what i want ser

Nip-05 is an important step.no matter what client you use.

You don’t have to verify with primal, you can verify with any site you want, but it’s important to use so people know you’re you

Knowing "you're you" is what your npub is for.

NIP-05 is not "important" for any user who isn't a wannabe influencer or a nostrich.house spambot.

NIP-05 is a cringy kludge that piggybacks on (centralised) DNS to "authoritatively" verify npubs. Something npubs can do themselves, far more securely.

Fair.

All I’m saying is, if someone is trying to impersonate some one and primal requires a nip-05 for their centralized caching server then it would be important to add that to your npub so that the service can “verify” you in some capacity.

It helps with reach in that case; and lookup for npubs. Which is what the OP wants reach and doesn’t want shadowban from centralized cache servers; best to control your own domain and use the nip-05

i agree, i think nip05 is important if many accounts have the same as your username, ie 'dan' or 'sms' which dan? oh dan[at]primal or sms[at]iris, its easier to remember than npubs

Valid.

But does Primal even require NIP-05? I don't see anything about it on their website

This looks like a more specific ban.

Primal devs have already acknowledged that they have a list of npubs "prevented from trending", shadowbanning is only a single step further down that path...

yep nostr:npub1grd6pp385tevd8psx9nxzjd4vutg7pycjj49cs3q8gujpg77sjps4752zz got a nip05 and hes shadowbanned on primal

Dang..

Really? Nice. Finally got an excuse for getting almost no interaction

wait, you didnt know this?

How do you even check if your shadow banned on primal?

Post a reply to threads of primal users that don't follow you.

Then ask someone on primal who doesn't follow you to check whether they see your replies in that thread using the primal app, and without searching for your npub in particular.

I'm not exactly shocked, even though I only post things everyone can enjoy

lol another npub that is shadowbanned on primal for sure is nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj

not right now, but was

And a few more yes. I remember the primal bans. Not enough people remember apparently

If you nadar your notes, you might find as I did that your notes are reaching no more than 5% of queried relays.

It's a much more widespread issue than primal being a Twatter of nostr.

It's becoming clear that nostr is for some reason being hyped as something it isn't and can't be, much like #Bitcoin was as "digital cash", " free, uncensorable, decentralised medium of exchange ", et cetera.🤔

To me it looks like you're only connected to 3 relays. I can see this reply on 2 of them though theforest relay shows it as missing. This is a private relay so either you're not whitelisted or it might be sending back missing to my query since I'm not whitelisted either. Gossip will discover and broadcast to other relays but you shouldn't expect it to broadcast too far if you're not connected to many relays and don't have influencer level follower count.

Thanks! 1-3 relays is what Amethyst settings say to put as outbox relays.

Seems just one should actually be enough, if nostr works as advertised.🤔

If its gossip protocol doesn't propagate to all nostr relays eventually, then it's just a network of silos we have in other social media now.👎

Oh geesh! I didn’t know that they had a specific list of npubs that they push down.

That’s not cool. But Nostr fixes this!

I don’t know if they require nip-05 or if they only promote their own atPrimalDotNet domain. I deleted their app a while ago, with them supporting blossom now I am even removing all my media from their server.

I agree it’s no good to start going down that path.

people seem to have forgot they did shadowbanning a year or so back

the monkey caching service does not require NIP-05

is this your account too btw?

Not mine.

Why would could use anything other than npub to identify an npub? 🤔

Simplify your thinking to the level of realism

They got shadowbanned because Primal has shadowbans

It's that simple in reality
