Border is terrible because people can fake the border in the image. It has to be something else that people cannot create by themselves.

got bogged down creating the Public Chat discovery panel and refactoring the hashtag screen at the same time :(

But it's coming.

First community post from Amethyst

Does it give any more details than that? If you are using the Play edition version, it's probably the translation AI model download.

Kind1s are overrated

Could you help validate a statement about communities, please?

Since communities can be created on any relay, and notes to that communities can be posted on any relay, it is improbable (if not impossible) to RELIABLY provide a notification service for moderators whenever a new post is created on their community.

I can of course provide a notification service but cannot guarantee the reliability of it due to different relays being involved.

Is my understanding correct?

If you use the relay/relays tag to affirm the preferred relays of the community, every client should post to them and then you can cover most of it.

However, it will never be perfect. Clients can always send things to other places.

We don't have that option yet. But it's coming.. right now use live.snort.social to create the streaming event.

This is an issue in all networks. Even today if you create a new Twitter account or a Facebook account, only random stuff shows up to help people build their feed. We will most likely have Nostr client specifically designed to find contacts, and topics of interest and organize/build lists of things people want to see at once in other clients: chat + hashtags + streams + feed + communities + private groups + workspaces + reels. Every one of these interfaces will have a set of follow lists. There is a lot of work yet to do. :)
