You can say anything on Nostr ... because the search is broken and no one will ever find it again!

It's definitely yelling into the void, besides a few big names
Salty John graces us with his profound insights once again. Thanks JOHN!
💀💀
Yes.
I mean bro, have you used the search in these apps? I am just a user trying to use this thing...
Inspired me to share what I was already thinking to share - makes it more fun knowing it’s cathartic over trying to go viral 😂
Haha i was so confused by your post now i get it
It's actually propagation and shadowbanning problems.
If you nadar your posts, you might find as I did that they are reaching maybe 5% of existing relays!
NADAR
primal search is solid
we will make it better
It really is not. I have been primarily trying to use Primal for months on desktop and mobile. There are multiple issues making it not serve everyday use. I often go to other apps to try and get other results. Each app fails to find some things, fails to return anything at all sometimes, and requires tricks to work at all.
It probably isnt just a primal issue, could be data propagation, etc.
But sincerely, it is far from solid for someone trying to use it daily.
You’re totally right we should all just use Facebook. Would be way better
No, he meant the solution to all problems is Pubky.
I use it all the time. What's your biggest issue?
Here is mine. It shows only posts made from that account, note the 7month gap.
That post i replied to today, shown at the top of the screenshot, from bfgreen, i could not find it searching 3 different nostr apps
It cant find things unless you choose weird settings, and even then you cant find things you know exist
Cool yea maybe. How many people use Pubky?
And try finding this post without using the id, i couldnt do it in Primal, Damus, or Yakihonne

Pubky = you control your content = actually you give us total control to use, re-use, share, etc. all your content. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
thats a different account with a 7 month gap between you mentioning pubky
Right, but it is a generic search from the Primal app i have on this phone. Not a profile search.
If i pull it up on desktop it is just broken a different way anyway
Here is another, showing some settings and the output. Premium feed? It is a narrower search with few returns!
Please stop with scrolling vids i am gonna puke lol
Well it works for you so i guess there is no problem and primal is perfect!
primal search is solid
we will make it better
it is reflecting your own suck back to you. its magic 🪄
It is totally broken for some people, so I won't be referring to it as solid, but I understand why you would.
let me know when we can use pubky without an invite
I am sorry your search is broken, but i dont think me explaining the invite code strategy will fix it!
Do you still want to learn more about it?
You can search efficiently on pubky... because there are only 200 total posts.
Just having a laugh 🤙
You can't search on Pubky at all right now!
But you can filter the graph by keys and tags :)
Still learning a bit about the differences. Got a video on DHT queued up for future viewing. Tagging is cool for sure.
Enjoy your pot stirring smh
That kademlia vid we linked is excellent, from the Iroh guys, they also use pkarr
Was gonna watch SHAcollisions video. Will check this chlamydia thing out too
Same vid i think :)
Oh, so it is lol. Phew, homework load just got smaller
Interesting. Are you letting the relays all connect before trying to search?
I am using Nostr apps, not running anything myself. I assume Primal, Damus, etc, handle any connectivity and indexing needed.
Ha ha ! Lucky me - no one will read it and be confused as well 😂
