 Quality … notes? Or quality client? 
 He probably just meant quality in a general sense. Onboarding is more than just a signin page. I am doing a redesign for onboarding. 
 what are your ideas? 
 I will announce my ideas at NostrAsia 
 Both, as a quality client would offer a way to remove low quality notes.

Say what you will about Twitter but there were far more educational notes/threads over there. I miss that.

I wish I could dial down the memes. 
 twitters algo is horrible 
 Agree.

There is still good content over there, that is completely missing here 
 the biggest issue is one algo, they dont even do chronological

#nostr needs an algo and list market, we need top lists to give new accounts to get started, default antispam list etc 
 Where are the thoughtful, educational threads commonly found on Twitter, here? 

I love nostr and having fun but it's full of superficial shit and memes preaching to the choir

An algo market does not fix that, or does it? 
 this is one of those threads, they do popup

this convo is what a chat mode for kind1 notes centered on a thread etc would be perfect

we have access to the fedi via relay.mostr.pub

the fedi bootstraps nostr

 
 Interesting take.

Yes there certainly are conversations around. What I'm referring to are those 1/n tweets by the same author where they dive deep into a topic, things like that 
 an algo could easily pull those out

#report interesting or deepdive 😃 
 this is what chat is good for btw 
 hash out ideas, uninterrupted thought flows 
 Isn't wanting to re-create Twitter threads a self-limiting idea?  Threads are a workaround for the short-form nature of Twitter.  On Nostr, if you have more to say, there are long-form note kinds that support that. 
 It's not. I randomly came across interesting topics while scrolling on Twitter. It's not the same user experience as going to a separate site like Habla and start scanning titles. That would work exactly like going from Twitter to Medium.

What is different in Nostr is that kind 1 clients could technically show long-form content (folded) and one could click to load more if the first paragraph sounds interesting. 
 That might be the way to go.  Habla.news is a relay just like any other, so any client can read from it and render the content however it fits best within the framework of the app. 
 Found this by chance

 Good points made there.  On the other hand, though, I'd contend that character limits can cause conversations to lose nuance.  Being able to spin off discussions on different entries in a thread has value, I can see, but I wonder what limiting ourselves only to bite-sized discussion points does to our mind.

There's a place for Twitter, and a place for other platforms as well. 
 Yes, someone mentioned highlights could be used to make comments on specific chunks of text

I really hope there's no more place for Twitter in this world 😂 
 if you viewed the thread as a chat spinoffs would be quoted replies 
 an algo and list market fixes it mostly, we need people but we have enough and the fedi 
 content comes with people, nostr by being unstoppable will slowly grind and build 
 a quality client should present quality notes

filter, signal
