That too! The best way seems to be a combination of algorithmic solutions like that for day to day, and more “brute force” methods like what I posted for cases where a user wants to take no chances.

Seems like at the very least, it would be beneficial for clients to add a feature where you can request to only see + get notifications for replies to your posts if you follow that person making the reply.

This would make it so that people don’t have to see harassing/spammy/garbage replies to their posts from random people, and avoid experiences like #[0]​ had yesterday

Stoked to see the first major client to implement Gossip’s “relay autopilot” model

and ill comment on this to see what happens

Every CCP simp who refused to even entertain the possibility of this can now kiss my butt

yeah great example, something like that! if in theory, all relays had this functionality, wouldn’t this mean that clients could connect a user to any handful of relays at random, and they’d get the coverage they need?

It would be cool to see relays that also act as proxies to all other known relays.

This way, rather than syncing *all* data with all other relays and using a lot of bandwidth/space, it would get a request from a client to look up posts from a particular user, and it would then ping all other relays for that users posts.

Is this possible?

Love the smooth UI! #[0] is this open source?
