Not necessarily. Because I can find a relay that doesn't block me or create my own. And when I update my relay list, whoever follows me will get my ratings from the new relay. In NOSTR there is no reach, because there is no feed algorithm. You only see in your feed what you follow and the client will get the ratings of whoever you follow wherever necessary.

These attacks on X don't have much effect, the community notes are robust enough to get around this. But on NOSTR there is no such attack option. Because if you follow the person you will continue to see them. If a relay blocks you, you can use another one.

I don't know. It's all still new and there is no definitive rule. In decentralized environments, prohibiting is always complex. The important thing is not to give feedback and visibility to people who don't have the same moral principles as you.

It's a community effort. Profiles that are frequently reported will start to be blocked by relays and clients, and other people will see the alert that you have flagged the content as hate speech. But the most important thing is that nothing related to this reported profile will appear to you.

I can't say. But there must certainly be more processing to find the numbers closest to the correct one. But they are certainly not 100% correct.

The power of the community. Spam alerts are used by relays to block access to offenders. Another important point is that in most clients, only the notes of those you follow are displayed in the feed. If you look at the global feed, you will see a little bit of span.

"request count" is probably the number of times the link was accessed. Probably how many times the link was accessed by an application to put it in the feed. The term "unique views" is the number of real people who saw it. For example, I can open the link 10 times, which would be 10 requests and one unique view.

hello beautiful people,

luna here. i realized i’ve been lurking around so far without much of an introduction. that’s not warm nor polite of me. so here it goes.

curly headed, high spirited humanbeing currently spending a lot of time with thoughts in and around decentralizing power especially when it comes to who gets to be heard and who gets to exercise free will when it comes to technological development, david deutsch, integral theory, collective emergent behavior, experiential artistic research, ancestral ways of knowing and listening, human nature and connection, tomatoes and well, nostr.

i’ve done many things, lived many lives. what i come to sense a fuller truth in is this: a state of constant creation, nature and tending to one’s inner world.

before closing it for now, i got a burning question i feel could find resonance here: i want to build a tool to find people to talk to in person, people who are occupying their time with the same questions yet hold different views. i do not have experience so far with software development, but i have been playing around with claude+swiftui for a while. seems pretty managable.

here is the question: i would very much like to build it with(on?) nostr. as you might sense from me not being sure about what preposition to use, i am pretty new here. feeling deeply in parallels to the ethos here and understanding over the past few days that building more applications with this technical infrastructure that speaks to a wider spectrum of people beyond the bitcoin community, i wanted to bring this intention to you.

is there anyone who would like to give me a hand?

what i can imagine for a helping hand could come in many forms: tips and thoughts on understanding it deeper here or a bit of your time for a conversation for me to bring a few questions.

curious🤸🏻‍♀️

realizing i did not #asknostr, posting again

You can create a community and manage the topics and physical meetings for discussion there. You don't need to develop anything, just use a client focused on chat and communities.

Which client are you using? You need to configure your lightning address to receive and your NWC communication to send. See where to configure it in your client.

Isn't it coming out of Satoshi's wallet? Send me a short ZAP and I'll check if I receive it here. I sent you a ZAP. Check if it entered your wallet.

See the link. It has all the existing relays. You can see their features, technologies used and how to install them. -- Suggestion: If you have knowledge of how to configure a server, do not use Umbrel or Star9. They are heavy and will lose performance. If it is just a test to understand the technology, then it is valid to use them.

Many new users are joining NOSTR. And the topic of influencers, likes, and subscribers comes up again. It's always a question for those who are new to NOSTR about this, since centralized social networks are based on these parameters.

In my opinion, NOSTR is not geared towards influencers, advertising, and content creators. It is geared towards interaction between people and mutual help. There will be no ads, so there will be no revenue sharing with content creators. The form of remuneration is zaps, and the incentive to zap content created by someone is if that content is useful or helped the person in some way.

With that, I can only imagine remuneration for content creators through the provision of a service. Where the service is the creation of content for learning or entertainment of the target audience and charging for access to the content, like YouTube members, for example.

I raise this issue because we need to start thinking about applications and features with this objective. NOSTR will only become big if it is financially viable.

But if you want to help, the best way to start is by helping with translations and testing. There are many existing applications that need help in these areas.

BTC requires knowledge of C++ in most cases. NOSTR any language will do, but depending on the type of project it requires a lot of cloud experience.
