#asknostr It's there a child friendly nostr app? I'd like a mentally healthy place for my daughters, and their friends, on social media. I may have to run a relay and filter traffic. 🤔
new NIP for kids viewable by parents. 😇
I might suggest having a spare npub you use and also letting them use it. So they sign into nostr as you, and the people they see posts from are the ones you've followed on that npub, etc. If they're old enough to need their own npubs, they might also start wanting to get around any hand-filtered feeds
That's a good idea. Right now, they've setup their own little communities in discord.
There is no safe place for Social media, no filter can fight the mess mixed messed 😌 Shield always inside our mind, strenghtening is a must
might want to speak to @hodlbod about this... he has been focused on providing such a service for his Church members with #coracle.
I'll reach out. Thanks 👍🏾
Running your own curated relay is the only way that is even remotely safe for children
There's no safe way for children to use social media, or even the Internet, same as there is no way for a child to be safe in the natural forest or jungle. The only safe way is to prevent children from using it, same way you prevent them from using many other dangerous things. Children survived without the Internet for millennia without any harm. Those who remember normal human life and social interactions before the Internet, remember how much mentally healthier that life was.
I didn't ask for a safe space. I asked for possible tools to maintain a space where they can be kids, without porn and pedos. Só be helpful, or be silent.
You've confused this with Twatter, if you think you can silence responses you don't like here. If you're so addicted to social media yourself that you can't imagine your children or yourself without it, don't blame the messenger. If those digital tools were possible, you would have already found them in your own social media experience. IRL, the same tools that kids used to be kids and socialise for generations or centuries still exist - clubs of all kinds, theater and concert outings, dance socials, religious/community social and educational events, volunteering, just chatting on a landline , and so on... Those do take more parental involvement than just giving the kids a digital "tool" and hoping it's free of everything harmful.
Social media is not human friendly, much less child friendly. Why don't you feed them a hot dog every day while you're at it. Be sure to cut it up into small pieces so that it's safe.
look at this ignorant "parent" nostr:nevent1qqsrfdd9488del8aajzsmnnukl6j78h4pt7w3zuwgkasl3nkmcaldgspzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsygqur9a39j5uupq4ku88gpdewu8sa34ue76ekv4k82hagt9jgtskggpsgqqqqqqsl4r858
Good luck trying to get them to use it, provided you can filter everything. TikTok and Instagram is all I ever see them use.
Yeah that's a concern I have. I can build all the infrastructure, but competing with "this is what everyone is using" can be frustrating. I try not to be a hypocrite teaching about the Constitution and being born free, whole being a dictator dad 🤣
I don't know how stuff like this is done, but on top of running your own relay, you would want to have bots (?) mirroring the (suitable) content they like from other platforms. This is something we should have in general, for for children it would seem especially useful.
Hmmmm.... That's interesting. I've seen a few npubs who mirror from twitter. I may have to experiment with a few things. 🤙🏾
