Oddbean new post about login | logout We all kind of knew how algorithms on traditional social media fuel hate and animosity among people for profit. But after using Nostr, you really start to realize the magnitude of that manufactured hate and just how bad it really is.

Absolutely agree, however there will certainly be a time where AIs will swarm #nostr to manufacture hate. Maybe Nostr is just too small at this time to justify poisoning the discussions. At some point maybe Nostr will gain to integrate a #ProofOfPersonhood protocol such as Idena (https://idena.io/) so users can prove that they are humans and not bots.
Curated paid relays can stop a lot of bots and spam in the future. It will just be the cost of having a clean timeline.
But how would they remove « troll AIs » poisoning discussions (like those on Reddit)?
With curated relays. A relay owner could potentially manually curate which npubs gets to write to that relay. That means if you only use that relay you would see a very curated timeline of manually picked people that are not bots or AI. Of course it might not be feasible to do it, but it can be done already.
It seems that what you describe is a whitelist relay which may have interesting properties but probably not a good fit to act as a regular relay free of AIs.
I'm not solving captchas for a token lol that idea is older than Bitcoin it's called fatigue operator and bot operators took turns solving each other's capatchas so their bot could run when they were away. I like the model where relays handle the bans and anyone can easily spin up a relay.
It doesn't have to be this way. Welcome to the other side. nostr:nevent1qqsgdz7upy83a0m37jzt72hxfalz8w5rnsd0rpk0wpfj9shz2rmr25spr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qgsvdac80utfn4gvly4fv54la0l6cp0udpptnm3ezzyajkdc44w53lgrqsqqqqqppjf09u
But how does Nostr protect itself from misinformation/hate speech once it gets mainstream?
The HUMAN has to block or mute. It is mainstream 🤣🫡
#21DaysOfNostr #Day13 (or not, it doesn't matter...) The algo from the usual social media is a microdose of poison: too small to perceive immediately, too persistent to simply evade. Many people, including myself, only realise what the algo of endless traps with autofeed does to you in direct comparison. That's why we nostr! nostr:nevent1qqsgdz7upy83a0m37jzt72hxfalz8w5rnsd0rpk0wpfj9shz2rmr25spzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsygxx7urh795e65x0j25k22l7hlavqh7xss4eacu3pzwetxu26h2gl5psgqqqqqqs0pgt59
💯 Its funny and sad at the same time where being on the fringe is organic, genuine, free and authentic but also a minority and lonely. However when a platform becomes more popular, it moves from fringe into the main-stage and gets noisy, crowded, disgenuius, fake and manufactured. my thoughts 💭
