I am rethinking the user profile page. How do you generally use the page? What are your most used features there? What actions do you look for? What should stay? What should go? Vote by liking the replies of this post.
Badges
Should it stay or go?
Should stay
What purpose do they serve?
I'd opt for go
The usefulness of badges hasn’t even been exploited yet IMO , I’ve only seen two education projects gen up and using badges for something like certifications makes a lot of sense
Seems to have all I need
Seems sufficient as it is, well balanced.
A "Being John Malkovich" button that lets you view nostr as that user.
that is called an npub ser
I don't think that capability has been broadly marketed. Few know!
There is no such capability in amethyst, right? Of course you can copy the npub and create an account with it, but a Malkovich button gives you a very easy way to do it. Just to temporarily transcend into someone else's persona.
Some way to see my feed without my boosts and quotes
I use it a lot for finding and accessing a specific profile. Someone I know I am following/is following me
I like the status, I think it should stay.
I wanna see the complete npub of an account. 1) my shiny vanity key is cut off 2) it's easier for impersonators to mine a key with only a few matching letters at the start/end
See the reactions
Maybe remove zaps from the profile page. I saw some people complaining that some devs receive more zaps than other and having this info in the profiles can lead to attacks, so showing how much a person is receiving should be discouraged
I look at follow/following quite often & I really like recommendations. A mutual follow list would be neat. I never look at reports. Badges are fun but laggy & sometimes seem to cause crashes, maybe be call on request(?). But it's fine to me as it is too. I don't miss what I don't have & it doesn't feel cluttered.
Imo remove badges, remove zap history and total amount. It would be nice to have a "media" page and maybe the ability to pin/highlight a note at the top (instead of bookmarks). Or maybe turn the public bookmarks page into a "highlights" page where the profile owner pins their personal favorite notes. Btw, I mainly use the profile page to read the notes and look at follows/followers
Would be nice to create a new post directly from the profile page, instead of having to double back to Home first. Also would be nice if while visiting another profile, I can create a new post that mentions them directly
I just want to run amethyst on my Chromecast with Google TV. I have the APK. But it says "this app isn't compatible with your tv". It looks really good when I screen cast it. But I would like to use my remote to navigate. Or maybe just use my phone as a keyboard for the TV. I'm always pushing the limits. Just ignore this if it sounds too crazy. I can't help it lol..😊
I'd like to be able to post content from the profile page, rather than having to change to the public feed to do so.
I think you should stop adding features for a while and concentrate on fixing the memory issues. Amethyst (and Onyx) both crash so frequently that it is a constant struggle to use. If you insist on adding new features, at least start with audio notifications for DMs. nostr:nevent1qqsdhn5s6nlaeq4kj953df8w6m9jntyujwhlugx8d3vzd3434x8jxngppamhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5pzq3svyhng9ld8sv44950j957j9vchdktj7cxumsep9mvvjthc2pjuqvzqqqqqqymtqvql
I almost never use the profile page - usually list to copy an npub if that. It’s too much work to scroll through to see what people talk about. What might be interesting is seeing people’s curated media. Perhaps podcasts they appeared on, books they wrote, talks they gave - something that lets me see who they are beyond a short bio.
I’m the same, literally use it to check the bio for any red flags before I click the follow button. Although I’m a #damus user so I’m not sure how amethyst presents the page
how brave of you
karnage uses it to mute people
i use profile feeds all the time, one of the best features, need a liked feed too
liked feed
It would be nice to see monthly likes, zaps. A good pick would be to display hot topics/ hashtags that users post about. Apps linked to user account like blogstack or satellite earth etc... would also be a nice feature. Last... Relays used for selected profile connection.
I mostly visit people's profiles to DM them, copy their Npub, or look for specific posts.
Feels like search in somebody's profile could be interesting.
Finding specific notes by keyword and date range would be fantastic. Right now I have to find the npub and use Advanced Nostr Search. This should be possible within the client.
I would like this feature and use it often.
I use it to vet a profile, i.e. seeing someone's posts to decide whether I want to follow them or not. I mainly see whether I find their past 10-20 posts interesting, and I check that they don't post too many posts per day.
I visit so I can see a follow button and click it.
I looked at lightning addresses. I'm looking at setting up zaps so wanted to see what services and domains people are using.
I read the bio to get a sense of background and seriousness.
Are you talking about Profile for viewing myself or when viewing others' profiles? I thought the latter but many here seem to be answering for the former.
Pinned posts please Ser.
