Nice!

Wonder if I should try some first class support for this

If user tells the client that an event represents a room then it can give a separate chat experience that’s more like Slack/telegraph

Keeping the lists out of the customary timeline

Only consequence is that your followers will see all of your chats in the room unless your client elides them. (Not sure what it could use to decide to elide them...without introducing some new nip/rule.) 4/

Client can give first-class treatment to the "room" by having a more immediate chat experience (instead of this infrequent click-to-reply ux). 3/

Everyone adds the room as an "identity" to the client, which will show all messages with a "p" tag. (There are no "follows" at all.) Client can add a "p" tag for each message in the room. 2/

This desktop client is pretty snappy. Probably this has been discussed before. But public Telegram-style chatrooms could be had just be creating a new identity to represent the room 1/

Cool- now can use this untethr client for real. First functional publish and replies are working.
