Eliminate re-posts
I will stop using whatever client does that
I have to say, it's nice to use coracle when there's something going on that leads to a lot of reposts. Not like on one note, I think that's funny. But like a newsworthy event that everyone is posting all sorts of stuff about & reposting eachother so there's a lot of repetition & lost signal. On a normal day though, I like to see what my follows are sharing.
I forgot Coracle doesn’t have reposts. Hahaha maybe I wouldn’t stop using a client that eliminates reposts then. I still use Coracle sometimes. Definitely far from being my main driver though. I mostly switch between Damus and Primal all day.
I think reposts have a place.. but their intergration into the regular content is an opportunity. Whether they are seperate feed, a delay i rendering. Not sure. But often i feel they more noise than signal. But not always.
Reposts are important for reasons I don’t feel I should have to explain.
😅👌
I think Primal collapses multiple reposts into one. Not sure how they do it, but I just saw one that said reposted by someone and 2 others. For some reason I don’t get bothered by the noise from heavily reposted things in Damus though. I just scroll past without thinking about it. 😂
That would completely cripple discovery. It's enough to aggregate them.
Low signal: re-posts, reactions Possibility of higher signal: zaps, quotes, comments - things that cost some energy
Zaps are mostly replicating the same social media and parasocial dynamics of legacy social media (lol)
Those turn out to be inherent to humans and not merely an effect of algos. The people you know, know more people than you do.
Yeah, mostly I'm just pushing against the idea that zaps are some sort of good 'signal' of something
They are, when I use them. 😂 I think the power users who zap are the ones uncovering signal. Not all zaps are equal. Could probably easily filter and measure only power-user zaps.
Generally, statistics focused on power users would aid discovery of high-signal material. They're quite simple to identify and they're all manually curating and purposefully reacting and interacting. We could latch onto that. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzphtxf40yq9jr82xdd8cqtts5szqyx5tcndvaukhsvfmduetr85ceqydhwumn8ghj7argv4nx7un9wd6zumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcpr3mhxue69uhhg6r9vd5hgctyv4kzumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcqyp60razwjfth9sy85kda30ep4x035yjkpe2g33whklnpzrvl5w2hvaexcjh
