Just drafted a couple new nips for private groups (rebranded as "closed communities"). I'd love your thoughts:
https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/875
The goal is to introduce as few new concepts as possible, instead composing existing functionality together (kind 30000 for member lists, and building on nip 72 communities). The benefit of this is that we now get hybrid communities, which can be partially public and partially private, which could have some interesting use cases.
nice, i don't understand the link but seems like a good idea to have gated communities, like telegram groups
Would this allow for paywalled content to be published?
or maybe nip 86 alone would be better. Paid subscribers have the current shared key and others see the option to zap to get access
The two could be integrated I think. You could use nip 86 (link please?) to sell admission to the group. A bot with the admin key could then grant or revoke access based on subscription status.
Oh, that's essentially what you said 🤦
