Oddbean new post about login | logout Damus Labs has been running a wild experiment for Purple TestFlight and we want to hear what you think! What if threads were more like chats? It’s wild, it’s crazy, it might be a horrible idea, but you know you want to try it! Experience it soon with http://damus.io/purple 👀 https://image.nostr.build/a762d27fcedd825bb5a14c3de2d97c4d0d5d139cd406bd430354a1fa4495b187.jpg
Yes
I see this as a chat and it’s fun 🤩.
I love it 💜🔥
Interesting new threading 🔥👀
$9.99/month???
freedom isn’t free
Oh well. I am sure as soon as people are born they are paying $9.99 for freedom and rest who don’t end up in North Korea. Make it $0.49. go for volume.
Then we should call it paiddom
have it backwards maybe? a dom makes a sub pay you dont pay the dom
Super interesting! I wonder how branching discussion will appear! But we are all hear to try and let you know 🔥
🙏 excited to get your feedback
Can you give us a hint when to expect to see this?
Within 2 weeks for sure. Probably sooner. Just working through some additional internal testing. Will also be a part of other fun TestFlight things like highlights and new emoji selector etc 💜
Tomorrow or early next week
🤦♀️
Hahaha… don’t worry, we are not holding anyone of the team accountable for deadline 🤣
@danieldaquino is in charge ultimately 💜

Heartbroken bcuz I couldn’t my account in Damus to function. Couldn’t see posts, or follow people. I’d be able to follow them and then hours later, nobody is followed. Tried to follow up and get help. I ended up t getting Primal. But I know you all still great regardless and on a mission! 🫶🙌
Can help with this next meetup, if you want to be able to switch back and forth with both.
Yes! I’ll text you. Let’s chat.
When can we upload vids?
OMG I LOVE THE MOOSE!!!
A telegram-like chat approach promotes the timeline, it works when there are no deep discussions, just a lot of first-level messages, *or* the discussions are limited to a few users. If these two situations are mixed, the discussion (sub thread) is inevitably lost between the single messages. So, the effectiveness of the chat context depends on the interaction's style among the users. Btw, today users are anyway more used to chat interfaces, so it could be preferred for a cognitive bias. I would like to test it, maybe with a in-thread option to switch between the two modes, and so compare the difference live.
Yes! Starting bubbles from second level of replies fixes this.
Interesting option. But probably it also promotes first level posts to gain visibility, to the detriment of contributing to an existing discussion (that is hidden behind the first level).
That's why I need those first to display like Posts, so that they can be filtered for high signal in the first place.
I'd only start displaying the Chat bubbles beyond the first level of replies: nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzp22rfmsktmgpk2rtan7zwu00zuzax5maq5dnsu5g3xxvqr2u3pd7qydhwumn8ghj7argv4nx7un9wd6zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7qpqu0jtdfwgns02asa0a2mg8r9aveuv2d8yq2ujju6ktpz8azwkz93qhhxydz Very hard to filter for signal otherwise.
Also: 1. You cannot do 🧵 threads if you turn the reply section into a chat from level 1. 2. You set "chronological" as the only filter option for the reply section, since it's inherent to the Chat UI.
That said it's great to see this! #chatmaxi
💜👏🏻💜👏🏻💜
Yup, I'm looking for the UI that allows for that kind of filtering while still being very enjoyable to read. Imagine Jordan Peterson posting something. First, you'd wanna see some high signal replies. Then, you join a conversation that was started by one of them. For a conversation need minimum two people 👉 It starts at level 2 of the reply tree.
