Completely untapped there right now, trying to maintain a town square - but town squares don't have 1000s of participants with nothing in common.
Now, if we have hundreds relays, some more popular than others, some centered around a theme or location.
Users have personal curation feeds for "i dont care for their notes at this frequency, but they're welcome to say what they want" to "i don't want you swimming in my pond" and sending a report to the relay operators (WOT for example)
Relay operators should be able to get reports and other info from their users in whatever resolution is useful on who are good faith players on their relay.
Having those tunable knobs is how we solve the spam and toxicity issue.
Bright new horizons 💜 if I wasn't cooking right now I'd rattle off some thoughts I've had in the past (sparked by points the jaf has made) 😅
Please bookmark it then! Want to read it 😁
Reflecting on who i interact with a lot, its less the influencer type, more tight nit than other social media. Nice to see what the popular ones are doing but i care more in my extended circle of friends.
Definitely not the only way people use nostr, but there's at least a few of us here and i think exclusive relays - not paid, not computational (WOT), but just a relay where I have a lot of overlap in interactions, and I'll get invited because my content is appreciated and trusted to not be toxic.
