No, that's just a high-sounding excuse. What's really true is that you ignored everyone's advice and fatally sabotaged Nostr. We discussed this issue extensively several months ago. But it's useless for you. You can be the emperor of Amethyst, but please don't be the emperor of Nostr. Fortunately fiatjaf has been managing Nostr, if it were managed by you, you would just kill Nostr. You can fork Nostr to make your own Amethyst Emperor. I disagree with the statement above. I don't believe in personal attacks when we argue.

Well, let's see if this breaks Nostr or not. People always say I am breaking nostr in every new feature, so, it's nothing new. So far everything people said was going to break nostr only made it better and was adopted by more people later.

No one stops you from making a new feature. As long as you want, you can make Amethyst into an omnipotent kaleidoscope-like super App. But please don't ignore the life and death of the Nostr protocol and change the protocol to meet your kaleidoscope function. Nostr is not meant to be a kaleidoscope that can do everything. It's just a simple censorship-resistant social network protocol. Nostr needs to be kept simple yet efficient.

I respect what you're doing Vitor. Bleeding edge freedom tech, it's a beautiful thing to see. Edits have the potential to unleash a decentralized army of fact finders. I'm less convinced on the rationale behind changing kind 1 in the protocol. Why not keep kind 1 for all reply events?

Mostly because we already use other kinds to be replies in other nips. Kind 1 replies are rarely used outside kind 1 clients. And they break many clients when they are used in other nips. So, it's really not something new that I am proposing. It's just a formalization of what already happens.

If kind 1 clients must support every other client just to display replies correctly, then we are making their life more difficult. It's not an issue for Amethyst because we implement everything, but it is a pain for any new dev. :(

"note edit maximalist"? This must nostr:nprofile1qythwumn8ghj7anfw3hhytnwdaehgu339e3k7mf0qy2hwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytn00p68ytnyv4mz7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uqzq3svyhng9ld8sv44950j957j9vchdktj7cxumsep9mvvjthc2pju2hq5qc 's fake account.

Maybe a DVM could get all the edits and LLM summarize them as a new kind? Then people following that DVM would see the community notes summary by that key. In that way, people get the freedom to choose their own summarizing algorithms.

That's fun to think about, but I think it's more in line with the nostr way to build a system where the humans are the algorithm. The existing reaction kind should be enough as long as there is a standardized way to up and down vote, like '+' and '-'. With that standard in place, my client can then show me the top voted suggested edit, with votes filtered through my web of trust.

But I believe the power of community notes is that those who don’t normally agree, this time agree. That prevents the power of the mob from simple majority rule or “”democracy. Also, community notes members have a vetting/waiting period. To reduce and prevent bots. How will you implement that type of protection against bots? Would people need to have made a certain number of posts and likes and comments before they can use this particular up vote or down vote reaction?

Perhaps you could make a new specific comment event called “context” or “aside” which basically starts a a sub thread on a given event about the context of that comment, as opposed to continuing the in line conversation. This could be used as a community note, or any other type of context appropriately.

# Am i missing something? i've *never* had such a response on social media ever to something i wrote until this; and the most response i've got before this is when i told peeps to change their Android and Apple advertising ID in their settings. **Only** because of God first then, not following certain halo-ed devs that were blocking me (which is fair enough, i'm not most #plebs' cup of tea) but also it seems i was being blocked from others, likely those following them, effectively being censored, am i visible on #nostr again. It's only in another post when i mentioned **"little shit devs that make tyranny possible"** did things start to change, which has raised my suspicions especially that the #police and #MI5 have been very proactive in approaching mainstream platforms to keep me effectively muted. i am here on #nostr because a long time ago i was in a difficult situation and when it came to an end i was asked two questions: (a) What happened? (b) Did you complain? And i can't document that on a platform that deletes or shadowbans my posts at the request of a dodgy government agency. #FreeJulianAssange nostr:nevent1qqsqmdp33mkxjx7yusddgyzq4j8ky3t0l0p6g5szfxx2ccs53w66q4spz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuetcd96zuur4vgpzq5sw57mh23jkhycx6qwd56rfzeh24uercapuwkvgf6ek783dy6g6qvzqqqqqqy2xemcx

10 April 2024 - even when i'm following hash #binOthaimeen it doesn't show i'm following it and when i search for it i can't find it in app. And this is the second time it has happened out of many times when i've followed tags for them to disappear. nostr:nevent1qqsrxsqxlc04wn626f0c4as5sdhasrlhez2lj2fm3w9png4l384q4wspr9mhxue69uhkymr0washgetj9ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5pzq5sw57mh23jkhycx6qwd56rfzeh24uercapuwkvgf6ek783dy6g6qvzqqqqqqykcjfrq
