A message from the NostReport team:

We love the discussions popping up around notifications, tagging, and post length with NostReport. We are a group of plebs that are enthusiastic about Nostr and its potential for changing social networking, its ability to be a vehicle for the value-4-value model and bitcoin adoption, and ultimately its by-design nature that gives us each ownership over our identity and data.

We started NostReport because we saw a need for some way to keep up with the rapid pace of development here. We are early, all of us. As users, client devs, relay operators, nip-05 providers, content hosting providers, and content creators, etc., we are ALL early. In just the last few weeks there have been so many improvements implemented across these segments that it’s very easy to forget how far Nostr has already come.

Regarding NostReport specifically, we had a lengthy discussion amongst our team and we believe it is important to continue giving proper credit and attribution by tagging relevant accounts where appropriate. We will use our best editorial discretion in doing so, but we don’t have any plans to change that approach. We acknowledge that the “earliness” of all of this means not everything works exactly the same as it may if we were on another platform. But we are not on those platforms for a reason, and so we all deal with the growing pains of not yet having features that we wish existed.

Some features we hope to see implemented include the ability to manage notifications, including muting notifications stemming from a specific post/thread. We would also like to see clients truncate longer posts to a certain character count and then giving users the option to “view more.” We have seen this feature on snort.social and believe it is a good way to handle long form posts. Longer form posts also get harder to read with the way some clients auto-refresh their feeds. Even if you click on a post to open it sometimes the client randomly kicks you out of that view and back to the home feed and you lose your place completely. We suggest an option to turn off auto-refresh and give users a way to manually refresh when desired. We would like to see a better way to preview posts and formatting/tagging before publishing. Currently we must DM them to ourselves, which results in even more unwanted notifications for users we tag. We are happy to give feedback or discuss further with any devs that would like more input.

Lastly, we want to reiterate why we’re here. We love Nostr. We want to see it continue to grow and succeed and give everyone back control of their voice and online identity. We appreciate you following NostReport and hope that you’ll continue to give us feedback on how we can improve. Stay classy Nostr. 🤙

Thanks for the daily update - I always read them

About to go to sleep after a day of skiing 🎿

Yeah eventually after 40 mins or so. I was about 2 mins from jumping. Had it all planned out how I’d do it. Warming up now!
