How about a new nostr client: lurker For all those who want to read only, not write. Private follower list. Private bookmarks. No profile. No reactions. No posts. No replies. No DMs.
Is anyone building this yet? 90% of internet users only read and never post. nostr:nevent1qqs96x2ayyyfl7w9vy82438lswlaesca90wq6d4rclsysgngv56dc5cppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgst0mtgkp3du662ztj3l4fgts0purksu5fgek5n4vgmg9gt2hkn9lqrqsqqqqqprz6mhp
Don't all clients basically do this if you just enter an npub instead of an nsec?
Kind off, but in this case there are no bookmarks etc either. Lurkers want to organize and remember their content as well.
#asknostr How to create private follower list or private bookmarks?
Most clients already support this. Enter npub rather than nsec. It doesn't have to be **your** npub, it can be anybody's. Lurk as anyone you want and see what they see. nostr:nevent1qqs96x2ayyyfl7w9vy82438lswlaesca90wq6d4rclsysgngv56dc5cpr4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezucnfw33k76twv4ezuum0vd5kzmp0qgst0mtgkp3du662ztj3l4fgts0purksu5fgek5n4vgmg9gt2hkn9lqrqsqqqqqpahmlmv
Couldn't you do the same by setting up a profile and setting your relays to only use a local relay like Citrine?
Is there a specification for private follow lists, or another solution towards the same goal?
Yes, it's simply an encrypted blob that contains the followers.
Lurkstr? Nosnd? ("No send" but also Notes and Other Stuff Not Divulged)
