See a good note, boost a good note.

We have no algorithms here to do this for us. It's up to us to be the algorithms for not only ourselves, but for others too.

We are the algo, the filter, the shoulders

I feel that the algorithm of interesting people and hashtags works very well

Absolutely. We have to do the work to follow the right amount of people and the right people.

Was just thinking this

Or reply to it

That is not a boost.

But it still can help revive or continue exposure and engagement on a note

You're not wrong here. Any form of engagement is good.

We must stand on each others shoulders , so that we may reach the sun (or at the very least , the top shelf , where they keep the nicer biscuits ) .

we don't want to get too close to the sun though. that didn't work out so well for Icarus.

Nah, if Icarus had dev's like ours he could have just put in a PR for the wax wing problem and they'd go and invent duck tape to fix it or something.

Would have been fine.

I'll allow it. Devs are amazing.

Does this appy to boosting some of my older memes during busier time zones? Feels wierd boosting your own shit. Thoughts?

Look at us.

We are the algo now.

We are so fetch.

And broadcast them, too!

nostr:note1v5d32vevpp9qdphlcyp7v4ah60yexstu7hm04cmuamk97mplm55qkaxmtl

quote posting should automatically rebroadcast the quoted note.

same with replies

nostr:npub1zafcms4xya5ap9zr7xxr0jlrtrattwlesytn2s42030lzu0dwlzqpd26k5 please 💜

Absolutely! Are there clients that do this? It should be the standard.

nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s please 👏

Yep, last version of Amethyst re-broadcasts on quotes, boosts, replies and mentions to posts.

Damus does it when replying but doing it on quoted reposts is a good idea too

nostr:note1sqnfunexsyn89ggdxgdky5j50ezh6s9mtjncy9yfq9683c8x82jqke0vca

Really any interaction including reactions and zaps should do the same.

Hmm. Or at least the note should be fetched so it's not showing as post not found if no common relays exist. Essentially the gossip model.

what is the gossip model? i always keep on hearing about it, but i don’t know what that means

It makes everyone talk 😂 A client would go out and fetch the notes from relays even if the note writer and the note reader don't share common relays.

ohhh, makes sense 💜 thank you so much

It’s enabled by the more complex bech32 ids like nprofile and nevent because they can contain embedded relay information.

Clients that handle it can then use that info to manually fetch from the note authors relay.

I don’t think many clients fully implement this yet though. Because it’s pretty complicated.

nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn does coracle?

ohh, thank you jeff 💜🙏

Yep. Coracle doesn't re-broadcast though, because hints and nip 65 are usually enough. It's not a bad idea though.

Use hashtag like #bestofnostr so we could follow? 🤷🏻

How does reposting differ from broadcasting? When I repost something, it appears on my timeline. But where does it appear when I broadcast? I am using Primal now

When you repost/boost, everyone who follows you will see the note.

When you broadcast it, it'll be broadcasted to the relays (servers) you're subscribed to so the note might live longer.

I will suggest people to follow hashtags,

How?

Click on a hashtags like this one #bitcoin, and then, click on "follow"

> Note

> Instead of limiting your feed with the few you follow, it will open your feed to more interesting posts across the ecosystem

> If you want to remove it, you will need to gp to your profile and select hashtags followed and unfollow there

> If you want more engagement and zaps, join stacker news as well, https://stacker.news/r/rod

That's a follow 💪

Boosts should refresh a note to the top of the feed while removing duplicate boosts further down.

i’d like to see an algo marketplace develop and users can choose. plain chronological feed has shortcomings

especially if they pay for the boost in advance 🤣

Goose a good note

#goostr🪿

While algorithms themselves aren't inherently evil, their potential misuse raises concerns. The absence of algorithms in the mentioned context underscores the responsibility humans bear to act as moral algorithms. Algorithms in digital spaces, if not ethically designed and monitored, can indeed manipulate or "brainwash" people by curating content that reinforces preexisting beliefs. Nurturing these qualities ensures that human actions, both online and offline, counteract algorithmic pitfalls, helping individuals and society resist undue influence and making responsible choices for themselves and others.

This is just how people always communicate, no?

Speak about common interests, share cool shit, follow people they value, express gratitude, push out value back for Sats and status..

It's cool out here. Algos are useful to recommend music on Spotify not to intermediate conversations.

No... It is not "just how people communicate" It's how the masses are manipulated and others are censored.

If I use a question tag it makes me correct, no? 🙄

Are boosted notes sent to the top of other’s feed? I thought it was just chronological posts from people you follow WITHOUT a system to put someone’s note ahead of another note.

Or are we just becoming Reddit 2.0 with upvotes and down votes?

Algorithms are coming here

Technically we have them in several clients already.

What other clients have them? Only one I know is nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg

Snort and Iris both have trending posts and people.

Haven’t used either since they first came out. Glad they’re working on this. Thanks!

Ya this is I always Agree... Boost Notes is helping people to understand #nostr and #studybitcoin ⚡🟠

Algorithms not here,

We boost the good notes we see,

For all, we must steer.

#haiku

Better this way!

Yeah, we're back at pulling the cart ourselves instead of letting the oxen do the work :wink:

💯 and we need to evolve the tools towards the goals of sovereignty in how we get informed, and away from the force-feed algorithms

Everything in its natural flow

"See a good note, boost a good note".

nostr:note1ps2rup7x09kdnzunazwqacx4aw809qu9nd96x9hxka7c0ydphfhqyqru7x

we need a manual, numerical scoring function for posts. this will bring way more signal than likes or zaps.

Being flooded with good notes today! Wow! 👍

Aye aye, sir

It’s wild to watch user behavior learn and adapt to this. So early here. 💜

So true
