Decentralized “web of trust” (search WOT) is a HOT topic of conversation. I encourage all to look it up here on Nostr.
A successful implementation will involve individual lists (curated by each person) of “more and less trusted” accounts. Some accounts will be “auto added” to your lists depending on your WOT filter settings.
Also… a successful implementation will be extendable, with new WOT filters being added by NIPs and clients for people to use.
“Trusted accounts” will be relative to each person, possibly including the accounts trusted by their trusted accounts. This will be a HUGE onboarding hurdle for new people. Understanding and using these new tools will take time. BUT having access to a deep web of trust upon account creation will be even MORE important!!!
Social onboarding will help. Friends inviting friends to nostr IS the way we survive.
I’m building tools for this right now, starting with a simple app for advocates, coming soon …
nostrmeet.me
Because Nostr is open (owned by nobody and free for everybody) we have no central moderation to keep out bots and bad actors.
Unlike BIG social, establishing “networks of trust” between friends is the only way Nostr will survive the coming wave.
It’s on us to make friends, invite friends, keep friends close on Nostr.

One that pings fewest relays.
nostr:npub1n0stur7q092gyverzc2wfc00e8egkrdnnqq3alhv7p072u89m5es5mk6h0 has custom feeds. One could configure these with just one or two relays each. Not sure if other feeds will run in the background… or if this could be a setting.
Also nostr:npub1n0stur7q092gyverzc2wfc00e8egkrdnnqq3alhv7p072u89m5es5mk6h0 has “low data mode”… not sure what this does, but prolly helps battery life (and data usage).

They cover trenches with boards and let the snow stay on top!! #neverknew
RIGHT?

Yes please.
I’d like to query all “trusted users” on nostr to find our top nostr advocates. Can use your API?
What is this…? Serve NIP-05 and NIP-57 addresses from the same domain? How does that work?
Link won’t load… what is this?
BIG is the unifying factor.
BIG oil. BIG tech. BIG pharma. BIG media. BIG …. you name it.
All In bed with BIG government
Yup.
This is “why nostr”. 👇🏼 Everything else (notes and other stuff) is value add.

Yea. Elites don’t stop at porn. Porn is for the masses who can’t get the “real deal”…
