 What do you all think? Reels on top of the feed?

 No 
 Oh, boy, don't put that Tiktok addiction to there please.

I've witnessed with boobs at the first startup already, And i do not wish to have these at the top of my timeline. 
 If it was at the top of my feed, that also equals to instant porn once i launched Amethyst :( 
 I am dead serious.

You could look at this screenrecord by yourself.

 Keep reporting. Explicit content should be marked as sensitive by the author. Then you can hide all sensitive content.  
 It's fine, but please leave an option to disable it 
 The design is awesome; I wonder if it makes sense to think ahead and differentiate btwn reels and stories.

I don't know if anyone is thinking to build "stories" on Nostr, but they could end up looking similar in the ui 
 This looks really great. 100% do it. 
 Would like to try it first tbh. Maybe make it a switch?
In JSX I'd probably do

<ConditionalRender enabled=user.settings.shouldDoThing>
  ...
</ConditionalRender>

Would be neat to do something like that. Amethyst may be an everything app, but it'd be nice to turn certain things off, too. :) 
 Only if optional please. There are reel people and not reel people, some float through them for half an hour or longer, others never go there. 
Like that woman on the plane famously noted about the alleged motherfucker that isn't reel, it is a heartfelt issue to some.  
 If there's an option to nope the heck out of that nonsense. (I'm not the target market, but gosh, I don't like reels/stories since there's no need for them since we don't need stratified content to work around a crappy algo.  
 First of all the UI by @nielliesmons and after all the rest. 🤙 
 Yes, with an option to disable it 
 Sleek af. 
 What is a reel?  
 Top notch 🤙 
 I hate reels with a passion.

Wish I never saw another one again.

Might be different here with people I'm actually following, instead of a corporation telling me what's popular.  MIGHT be.

But probably I'm an outlier. 
 I'd say no but I think shortform video is bad for the brain. 🤷‍♀️ 
 As long as I can disable 
 Love it 
 As long as I can disable it. When I open the feed, I wanna see the notes listing as it is now. O prefer a separate place to see reels. On top of the feed is not terrible, but sometimes is boring  
 It would be awesome 
 what do you mean on top of the feed? xD Another tab, always welcome! 
 Amethyst is so awesome 
 #Amethyst is feature rich but too much noisee.
A design overhaul would be a good idea 
 I really hated that on instagram please don't.
