My principal problem with the paid relays is that I haven't made up my mind yet whether I disagree with the premise.
I certainly can acknowledge the first-order effects of it, I just haven't decideded whether I think they are revolutionary for the good of future social media, or cancerous and going to be the end of all that is good and pure in the world.
Conceptually the most attractive thing to me is the removal of the paradigm of free stuff online meaning you are the product. A small voluntary fee from all users to help make the thing work sounds really really nice to me in my inner hippie free software commie brain. I just cannot decide whether this current iteration will metastasize and kill us all.
shite. I'm doing this wrong, apparently.
My "organic" so to speak reach is only about 9-10 relays according to your nrcheck tool. I suspect that ain't great comparatively speaking, but I'm somewhat less than uninterested in paid relays. As far as I can tell, no relays that receive my posts broadcast them to any others.
Maybe I look like a spam bot.
I buy all my porn from local nostr thots with bitcoin
pura vida-ing my way to total dopamine saturation
I am so sick of the shaka bra react.
Fuck you and your cow, client dev
Fedi deletes have been around for ages, so long that some people purposefully disable them. Edits too.
Nostr not having consistent/clear quotes and/or reposts and which is which is hilarious to me.
Mixing verified on the front is a good insight I wouldn't have thought of. I would have assumed you would do it as some sort of flat score modifier on the output but I think your idea is much better.
By token, just some sort of special keyword pre/ap-pended? can that be gamed?
You can make what I'm working on.
An integrated nip-05 and image upload web service, so you don't have to rely on void.cat and nostr.build for that shit.
I'm leaving the ability to do websockets on the table so that if I want to do some memes with relays then I can. Leaving it for 0.2 because a relay is aquite a bit more in-depth than just a shitty media uploader and nip-05 provider
bad test, no cookie
I don't think there's much need to standardize via nips, but I bet a pull request for strfry or another pluggable to integrate rspamd or something would get in.
You might actually just be able to straight up use strfry's existing plugin system to implement something like that ad-hoc.
My ideal solution would be NIP-05 verification combined with bayesian filter to add a spam score that clients could use however they see fit, with some configurable floor beneath which the relay does not pass the message.
Maybe I should set up a relay and play with it, dunno.
> gitea and not gogs
fren...
local only word/bayesian filters would be cool too though, tbf. They just might not offer anything like bandwidth saving, if that was a goal
Bayesian filters a la email on relays are probably a really great idea.
Then a slider on clients to control what spam threshold is acceptable as not spam.
Life pro tip: stay one social media platform ahead of the average e-celeb.
#[1] Cc #[2] and sharivegas (don't have you here) but I think you are both qualified relay operators to contribute to this discussion
Nostr's biggest issue is the proliferation of webshit clients
0 issues syncing things across gossip to nostros. Git gud, I suppose. I did manually add my principal relays though, tbf
