This is a sad note: Because if you really don't have a reason to follow someone specifically and you only want to see a ton of content to filter out later then you should really just be browsing some nice relays. View quoted note →

People > Algorithms Still new here and figuring out how to curate my feed. I’m following pretty much everyone, because I’d rather have more voices and more content to engage with. My theory is simple: if someone posts things I don’t like, or just spams, I’ll unfollow. But in the meantime: more content = more community. Is this the right move? What have you tried?

The full name was Google+ Circles. You got to add friends to "circles" (see: sets) which meant custom feed citation based on the users within. I believe the user could elect to include these groups in global or not. It wasn't crazy complex or anything but it worked just fine.
I've been using damus in this mode since I joined nostr. browsing global and filtering by relays. I stopped following people when clients would just nuke your list for whatever
Well you called him sir, thats a start. Don't mind the jungle spirit, he is there performing meta-reflections. You are a mere example to get a point across to the (developer) community as such. Point being, its not (just) you on the learning curve, everyone is there with you.
Yeah, I'm waiting for more topic-based relays to pop up. Too lazy to start my own and afraid no one will show up cause I'm not a certified Nostr vibe-coder. Any other way is a recipe for complete garbage, mashed together and not a very efficient or organized way to engage with others or search for an interest area. Community/topic relays will win in the end!
Sorry, I had forgotten about that. Now I've set up some GitHub auto-publishing magic and added @leo as a contributor to the repository so you don't depend on me anymore.
