As I’m on the mission to post at least a couple dozen cocktail recipes on https://nostr.cooking/ and these posts are categorized as long-form, I’m starting to feel we really need to implement some kind of compartmentalization for Nostr-native blogging platforms on the protocol level. Otherwise everyones’ blogs will inevitably turn into “post salads” where we’ll have technical articles mixed with hobby notes and food recipes.

Would lists created by authors and corresponding tabs in the clients fix this, or is there a better approach? 🤔

I like compartmentalization, sounds like decentralization. Sorry for the useless input 😅

😄

So something higher than a tag? category?

Maybe tags with priority not to have to modify the protocol?

I always faced this issue when implementing classifieds or other poc social networks. Ended up using both a single category and tags. The categories had to be hierarchical to accommodate different types of an ad. Which then led me to recosider flat tags lol...

Can I ssume a dedicated NIP per long form sub type would be an overkill?

Not sure, but it does seem like this could be done with what we’ve already got.

100% gonna make a cocktail list. Thank you ser 🫡

I tried to articulate this problem as well. Got no responses.

Right; I tend to think there are existing systems like communities, relays, tags, lists, and feeds that can help address this.

It feels like a lot of those have more potential than we see being used today, but it's hard to see how they'll all fit together.

I think implementing a recommended feed will help bring out those capabilities in habla in particular.

We should enhance the user profile page to show the categories/communities user has posted in and be able to filter the content you are interested in, perhaps even allow users to customize articles shown in profile (by tags, curations, pinning posts and so on). Lots of room for improvement in this area!

Been planning to add articles to respective communities. I’ll try to find time to create and start utilizing those. Let’s see if that works
