 There's no profanity here (which I never see flagged anyway), so what is hateful or harassment about my opinion?

 I guess the leftists won't see your content anymore. I'll keep reading it. 
 The label isn’t right, probably should have marked it as “other”.   
 I'm curious how nos.social uses kind 1984. in the algorithmic feed client I'm developing, kind 1984 is useless because topical user lists provide all the raw data necessary to rank posts. I think kind 1984 can be useful from the relay perspective for programmatically banning users who post despicable content 
 We use it for content warnings. And Apple requires it for any app in its AppStore. 

I agree it’s more useful for relay operators. I’m also less sure of the value of a content warning after having done some research in to them. 

The 1984 events tend to piss off a lot of people, so they’re not having the intended effect of making the Nostr experience healthier.  
 I'm turning into a list maximalist myself. my vision is that topical user lists can be shared and copied among users and everyone can customize their feed by tuning in or tuning out of various topics 
 Yeah we need to do more experiments as what we have right now works but isn’t great.  
 agreed. the number one thing we need right meow is a way for newcomers to see fewer bitcoin posts 
 Yeah and in general make it much easier to find other kinds of content they are interested in seeing.  
 I'm focusing on the exclusion side at the moment, but there should be a way to choose topics to see more of as well

Counterpoint: it doesn't work. It's a bad idea and it's implemented terribly. 
 Apple is an utter disgrace and the Nostr specifications should never have pandered to its whims.

A much better way to report content would absolutely be possible (although not the kind of content which you reported: that was a terrible decision on your part, as there was nothing about that comment which would get it removed under any reasonable policy of any kind).
I have given suggestion on this issue myself and might actually work on it in the future, but the current 1984 kind isn't it.
(It is, however, the appropriate kind number for its purpose). 
 I wouldn't be too bothered by a kind 1984 
 What a douche.
