More here: https://soapbox.pub/ditto/ and happy to answer any questions!
Sorry, we're still trying to figure out the best streak algo! π¬
I appreciate that perspective, but I don't think the problems with "gamification" apply on Nostr because the platform and incentives are fundamentally different here.
The problem with the gamification of traditional social media is not necessarily that it makes people more "hooked" - the same can be said for all basic functionality of social media including getting followers, comments, and "likes" (or on Nostr, perhaps even most addicting... β‘ zaps!).
And no one would argue there is anything wrong with someone creating a free and open source game for others to enjoy playing. Humans like games, and it's okay to have fun!
The reason it's considered a "dark pattern" when Facebook, Tiktok, etc gamify social media is because they aren't just making it more fun for the user. They are specifically attempting to harness your attention for their own monetary gain at the user's expense. The more you keep coming back to their platform, the more they can steal your data and shove their advertiser content down your throat.
But on Ditto, a user's streak means nothing to us and gives us nothing (besides I guess a basic statistic about their recent activity level). We don't inherently gain financially from it because we're not harvesting data or selling ads, and you don't even have to use Ditto for your streak to count. For example, a user can have a 100+ day streak here but have never logged into Ditto -- because Nostr is a protocol, not a platform. Their posts count no matter what client they use (ex. Primal, Damus, etc.)
However, those who enjoy the gamified features (like me!) may choose to use Ditto and stick around a little longer on Nostr because of it. And I think that is a good thing! π π

Damn I was just about to come get my second cup π
Yes it's your streak of days in a row posting on Nostr! π₯
I stopped reading 451 about 5 pages in... the first interaction the MMC had with a woman was so cringe I couldn't take it. Especially after having recently reread 1984 and the cringe of Julia. Made me remember why I gave up on reading male authors, "classics" or not π
Have you read Oryx and Crake? My friend recommended it and think I might try it next.
Hey nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqjvnpg4c6ljadf5t6ry0w9q0rnm4mksde87kglkrc993z46c39axsus667r or nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpqq3sle0kvfsehgsuexttt3ugjd8xdklxfwwkh559wxckmzddywnwswgs456 can there be anything done with not having to do a two step process to zap someone on nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7erfw36x7tnsw43z7un9d3shjqpq0qdp2fc9ta6vraczxrcs8prqnv69fru2k6s2dj48gqjcylulmtjsu4qu0f
Maybe in the future! I know the team is working on new wallet stuff in general so maybe this could be a part of it? π
I'll tag our designer to give it some thought :)
The best time to start your streak was 182 days ago. The second best time is today. π₯
#Nostr #Ditto #Streak
Thanks! This is really good to know.
What specifically do you want to use the #AI for? Generating the content of your post, like writing captions and making images?
We are looking to add AI at nostr:nprofile1qydhwumn8ghj76r9de5x7atnv5h8xmmrd9skctmjv4kxz7gqypup59f8q40hfs0hqgc0zquyvzdng4y032m2pfk25aqztqnlnldw2ysr5rp and curious what interest there is for various features!
Okay that's acceptable! π»
