Working on custom user lists and thinking about funding development of NostrGram in perpetuity. The ⚡ are *greatly* appreciated but the project is mostly self-funded now in terms of time and the hardware costs of the caching servers.

I was thinking of creating a membership (like a patreon but not necessarily on the platform), and I'll still do that if need be, but I would prefer it if the ⚡ people generously gave were enough.

Of course, that requires reminding people of the need to ⚡ to support the project, which means I would have to put something in the interface that reminds people. Right now I'm doing that each time I push an update. There's a pop-up and it has a button to support the project.

But once the updates slow (at least the ones users see in the front) I'll still need a way to remind users of ongoing expenses. I'm thinking about putting a noticeable (but not annoying) reminder somewhere in the UI that makes it easy to contribute.

What are your thoughts on this? As always I'm interested in what the people using NostrGram would prefer. Would you rather a membership with some benefits to you for supporting, or would you just prefer an icon that reminds you to ⚡ some sats sometimes?

Just thinking out loud. Nothing is set in stone at this point.

Perhaps you could add an opt in setting called “zap match” where whenever a user zaps sats to a post, a similar amount could be zapped to Nostrgrams wallet too.

What about implementing AI (chat got styled) reviewers to classify "spam"?

that could work better

Looks really nice. Did you build it from source?

I couldn't reach the website

Nope i just downloaded the .dmg file for mac here: https://github.com/reyamir/lume-desktop/releases

Global nostr feeds without curation are totally useless. Actually I would say they are more harmful than anything. IMO clients should not offer global feeds unless they are curated. I don’t know the answer to the best way to curate, but I’m sure we can figure out something.

Yeah the window of global unfiltered feeds being helpful for discovery was super short. Now it’s just a chaotic stream of garbage that wastes data.

An *unfiltered* global feed was never going to be useful longer term as the nostr user base grew. It can be available under “advanced” settings for those who still want it, but for the majority of users, i don’t see it being a beneficial thing to enable by default.

Am thinking we need to bring in the "down vote". The majority of people are decent and will not like spam, porn, etc. The client can then pre-screen on upvote/view ratios.

I can see a vote system being a good way to discourage low quality posts by a single person, but when it comes to automated spam in high volumes, i don’t think manual voting by users can keep up.

Automated spam needs an automated deterrent.

This is from launching the Add to Homescreen version of Wikipedia

Ah so that’s the non-PWA version of add to home screen, where it’s basically just a shortcut to open that url in a tab.

Yeah it would be nice if safari extensions continued to at least work in PWAs, even if we can’t access their settings.

Hmm. Yeah but I wonder if simply allowing toolbar would suffice? For instance I can add to Home Screen with Wikipedia and extensions are available.

Really? which wikipedia url are you using?

Working on custom lists for NostrGram. A big 🙏 to everyone that has ⚡ me in the past hour since I wrote the post on freedom and support. You are much appreciated. 💜

Sweet! Any thoughts on PWA-ing Nostrgram? I love using it on desktop, and it would be great to have it launch like an app on iOS.

Snort + Nostore Safari Web Extension is great, but when using Add to Home Screen for snort (making it PWA), the toolbar is not shown which doesn’t allow me to enable Nostore extension. 😭

Wonder if there’s a way to toggle safari toolbar in PWA?

Unfortunately that seems to be a limitation of PWAs on iOS, they don’t have access to safari extensions.

I think people who have a decent following but follow zero people are douches.

Just means they want to use social media to broadcast stuff to people, but not to have discussions

Relay field in event/people is list of relay ids where that kind0/kind1 were seen. Below is the map of id - relay. Ids are used instead of urls to save bandwidth.

ah gotcha, interesting!

#[0] What is the difference between the “relays” field under “people”, and the “relays” field at the bottom? Also, why are the relays listed in the “people” field designated with 4 digit numbers rather than their wss urls?

Came across Lume, a (still in early alpha) desktop nostr client with a great UI

For sure! do you have an invite?

nice! any verdict so far?

Upcoming .. deleted spam events per relay. 👀

And here is your pubkey results. If you DM me a list of pubkeys I can send you the results.

Very cool! The code generating this data isn't open source I assume?
