You should have a modal when first signing in/up that asks if they want to opt in to that!

Otherwise only users who go to settings and turn it on will use it, and most won’t do that.

I’m curious which clients besides Gossip and Coracle post 10002 events to relays?

It’s difficult to summarize but:

- Same guy rules the country since 2002

- He pushed country more and more to a centralized government (The system changed more than once during his rule)

- He pushed people more and more to a divided polarized situation.

- Religious, conservative, nationalist people (which is happy to see a strong leader opress “all his enemies”) against people who stood for freedom of speech, want to see a more democratic governed instead of a “king-like” figure doesn’t care much about law (and openly states that), and secular (feeling disturbed because some decisions made by this government according to the islamic rules) etc…

- Even if the country is getting more and more rot from inside and out due to corruption (it is confessed by many people this guy who rules the country personally gained billions of dollars from government investments).

- One political party went for a election campaign with the full support of government sources, and with centralized media. Two days before election Current president talk with 17 reporters from 17 TV channels and answered their pre-prepared questions.

- It comes to a point if you have luxurious Car with Sign Plate that has the letters of the Political Ruler party in it no police would risk his job by stopping you. Because if you know the right people you would just make him lose his/her job…

- This might be the last actual semi-democratic election we will ever had because things will get much worse from this point on, more corruption more centralization…

Wow, thank you for the summary! I can see why things are getting tense and not on a good track.

I'm sorry to hear that! I'm not very familiar with Turkish politics/economic situation, what aspect of the results makes you feel you need to leave? There's still a runoff no?

Might be why I went with a gradient for Agora 😛

Sure you can!

I've tinkered with it, but I have similar reasons for skepticism that #[0] mentions here: https://fiatjaf.com/d5031e5b.html

Haha yeah I figured you would 😛 I have similar reasons for skepticism of IPFS' long term viability, but still nice to see the team at least working on making the experience better on mobile.

lool i know! if anything no one criticizes NY more than us NYers. i was just genuinely curious what you find to be a better living environment

This was part of the inspiration behind my building Agora, which is a nostr client that focuses on following topics rather than following people.

This way, your feed only shows posts that line up with your interests. Sort of "Opt in to topics" vs "Opt out of topics" approach.
