Oddbean new post about login | logout Only people you follow can see your notes ? Something like that ?
Yeah, encrypt every kind01 note and only followers have the key. Like with DMs, but in the feed. And then you hide them and their interactions with other people, for everyone else.
I'm not sure I follow. Basically, only followers would see your notes?
Only the people I follow can see my notes.
Can't do followers for it, on Nostr, because you can't restrict followers.
In that specific case, there’s no point of following a private account if it doesn’t follow you right? Unless you can do public notes too ?
In Twitter, you could toggle the account public/private. Or you could Tweet individual notes to your follows. Like, a photograph, or something. Or if you want to write something more personal.
Could be an account setting or a note setting. 🤷♀️
Never tried those features on twitter. I can see the added benefit though. I wonder if there would be the same issue as with DMs where the note itself would be encrypted but not the metadata
Wouldn’t that just be a group chat?
That's what I was wondering! Better said, though! Lol
@hodlbod's Coracle.Social already has private groups
This would be notes in the timeline.
Private notes show up in the feed. The idea of followers/subscribers getting the key would not be hard to build, separate from groups
It's not difficult to build, but I'm going to offer to alpha test because all of the different combinations of notes, replies, edits, quotes, boosts, deletes, highlights... Yeah, could quickly turn into a mess. 😂 Took Twitter years to get it working right.
