Some clients already combine boosts, bumping the note higher in the feed. Amethyst & Damus I know of.

Yeah, Amethyst bumps boosted posts. My ideal Frankenstein Nostr client for short notes would basically be Amethyst with Listr/Nostur list curation capabilities + Nostur’s "Remember position in timelines" functionality + Gossip’s proper NIP-65 support so I can actually find content from the folks I follow (and vice versa) + Jumble/Nosotros like relay feeds. And for good measure, I’d throw in 0xChat’s NIP-17 + E2EE messaging using MLS.
Basically, Nostr clients already have everything I need for an awesome content discovery and curation experience. Just not in a single client... yet. We'll certainly get there!
As for getting folks to understand that sharing/boosting is caring... now that’s a hard, non-technical problem to solve.
PS: Fedilab, despite its quirks, configuration overload, and far-from-award-winning aesthetics, has implemented everything I just mentioned for Mastodon/ActivityPub in a way that really makes chronological feeds work. If any client devs want some inspiration, I’d definitely recommend having a look at it.
I might've thought it still did due to losing my place in the feed or something and reloading. Would be very nice though for replies and showing the post with list of those reposted or all replies from your follows until expanded.
Might also be a case of people copy/pasting the same storm memes or art lol. Nostr etiquette will grow I'm Sure.
