from one post here I learned enough to keep me busy for a week if I didn’t have to finish a plan with dozens of photos, drawings and a material list
It looks great in Damus. Nicely formatted. Could follow while preparing such a dish. I wouldn’t know how to format a post like that tho.
It’s not what I say that gives my key a reputation it’s that what I say is not machine like which generates enough noise not to be impersonated. nostr:note1zqeqh9qyrzspjrfcpjd70kcvya7dvqdf4x0f4vgkae4sx7ksykzqhszvdu
Sorry for annoying you. I was trying to get down some thoughts and observations and not specifically tell you what you are thinking or saying. Your explanation is a lot more focused and specific than what I going on about. So please don’t see my post as me disagreeing with you.
See my second response as I address these points. Yes web of trust is the most important aspect for a working system while reputation is just an opinion that can not be quantized but can be aggrandized.
In an ideal commerce environment reputation would only define trust that this is a real identity and not an impersonation along with a rating on completed transaction for survives or goods. The social reputation distorts this because something like a denial of service attack on a reputation that costs nothing to orchestrate could knock out a competing product or service. This leads to cronyism which might attract the eyes of regulators to such a purported platform engaged in commerce because cronyism distorts prices and stifles competition (maybe not for the apps as OP pointed out but for the users engaged in commerce).
Nostr currently is not engaged in much actual commerce and is more akin to a sponsorship level of monetary exchange. The reputation value for seeking sponsors or subscribers rather than customers are completely different. A customer wants a product and that product to fulfill a need. A subscriber is feeding an addiction. Someone seeking a sponsor is promising value based on how reputation is defined on a social rather than commerce basis.
How are you gauging reputation? I haven’t seen that much commerce happen here like say a place like eBay where actual transacting customers give feedback reputation. Nostr seems much more open forum for discussion such as bluesky which now even though no commerce happens on the site has a third party reputation profile tagging system - profiles also defined by encryption keys. This means that a chance political discussion can earn a tag that is seen site wide on all your communications from past to future. Would this reputation system based not on commerce but on discussion not just be gamed by people with opposing political views creating an environment that is stagnant and silent since so little actual commerce is actually happening?
Sure! There are many videos on YouTube I have not watched yet but the most important resource seems to be

yeah. kinda weird measuring the carbon when it’s the oxygen that matters 🤷♂️
on the same page. a network plagued by long term debt becomes lopsided. would speculate that being able to settle short term debt and credit is commerce
Sorry. I may have misfiled this bug. Having the app open for an extended period has somehow fixed the margin issue and the caching.
Hope this help you somehow and sorry for the noise.
Ways of managing any debt or credit in your network?
