🎬🎥 sure as hell looks like sci-fi but call me a believer.

Folks who excel at using LLMs aren't bothered by hallucinations. Instead of frustration, they adapt and redirect. Or maybe they're just nerds who love to argue.

Nice work!

In the early days a global feed serves more as a tutorial for users as opposed to a feed you would visit daily.

You need to help people understand the 3 modes (and personas) of social bookmarking.... organize, share, and discover. Until there is critical mass, you should use the homepage to create a juxtaposition of users bookmarks and other's bookmarks. They need to see the relationship between them. Help people see the value from both sides.

note... nobody really has anyone's npub memorized, so the "View bookmarks by npub" doesn't really serve much purpose.

also, it's not clear how global is sorted and the sort order seems random with new content.

Where something occurs changes what it is.

Lordy Corn, that was unexpected. I was talking about the concept of identification and identifiers, not crossing the border with your nsec. Apologies if I touched a nerve, best of luck to you with your memes and your music.

It’s absolutely proof of your identity. Just like a passport or any other form of information which is unique to you the individual. It’s literally an identifier, but in a system of trust built on self-attestation there is no way to have it reissued. Yeah, the stakes here are lower but to pretend it’s worthless is to dismiss the value of self sovereignty.

It’s proof of identity granting authority to speak on behalf of said identity. It’s not nothing. Can I have yours?

Ok so it doesn’t follow me… if I am using 3 different web apps i would need to provide it to them?

This would be very cool but how do notes in the wild discover the APN endpoint for Damus users? Field in your profile?

Tags won’t really matter until you have scale. Global will at least open things up for people to see what social bookmarking looks like.

Given any amount of traction you are going to run into spam just like any other nostr global feed does. But if you are being attacked at least you are worth attacking 😂

You might also want to seed a global feed with a bot (even if it’s curated manually at first). Setup a script that gets popular links from Lobsters, or Pinboard, or HN so it’s not a ghost town. Put things in it you think people want to see. You have to bootstrap you own content or people will think it’s dead and bail.
