 Yeah I agree. We’ve got pieces to make it all work but they’re not put together well I a way that works for users and creators.

And for my trolls out there, the bitcoin payments part via zaps, lightning/cashu etc is fine, it’s the overwhelming bitcoin content that drives people away.  
 I think tags/hashtags, combined with the Web of Trust (WOT), can effectively address content categorization across notes, long forms, and other events. 

Clients should encourage the use of tags/hashtags by recommending related ones, allowing users to add them with a single click when posting notes. Recently, I experimented with lightweight generative on-device models (like BERT) that categorize text locally or suggest hashtags.
