Oddbean new post about login | logout I think a stalker from my porn days found me here. I could be wrong but I don't feel safe. This place needs to not show others that they've blocked their posts. People can see that they ve been blocked and they can retaliate you. All I can do is "block" myself from SEEING HIM but he can still creep me and tell his friends I'm here. We need to have a way to post that only my followers can see my posts. This is crushing my dreams. My art days are ending.
Oh man im so sorry Many people wish for a private part of Nostr. I can understand. Is this really not possible?!
Coracle have private groups, not sure how well they work, not really tried them
Never heard of it! When I joined nostr a year ago I saw people talking about private relays. For their kids or whatever… But then I hear stuff like, you can’t guarantee that the notes sent to that specific relay will stay only there. I’m in wonder for longer now. 🤔
Ah yeah, not sure about anything here tbh. Nostr doesn't seem like a good place to let children on imo, browsing global can be extremely bad
But imagie if nostr was the future, like the common thing people go to, to browse. Why not making a kid safe area possible? Or for those who share naughty stuff?
It's kinda like saying that HTTP isn't good for kids because you can serve porn websites that way. If nostr were ever to become kid-friendly, it would require heavy filtering to control what events they're allowed to pull. Global is fine if you're only connected to relays that require all notes to be kid-safe.
Simple algorithm: Whitelisted npubs appear on "Safeclient", although not all of their notes, but only those that do not involve non-whitelisted npubs. Simple, isn't it?
Yeah I think that is possible, but right now I don't think nostr is kid-friendly. I'm not even really sure children should be anywhere near social media generally. Just an imo
Im just imagine like a YouTube client in the future with learning videos :) otherwise I agree with you!
The technology for that already exists - Peertube, for example. The problem is nobody is currently working on such content for a Peertube instance, because it doesn't give you money. Youtube does.
Peertube, with the foss hive-tube plugin installed pays the creator a little bit as well as the audience, plus does massive syndication of the streams/uploads.
Yes but this is not a solution. Blocking a stalker in one client doesn't block a stalker in other clients. I agree. Privacy is quite an issue on NOSTR. But hey, it's a part of the Internet and I hope we all agree some things aren't meat to be posted on the internet. You can have 100 stalkers and they can't do shit if you are privacy focused before a person interact with nostr. Maybe someday nostr will be fully anonymous. We'll see.
Yes probably some things aren’t supposed to be in the internet But I don’t see the point in a completely anonymous nostr 🤔 But what if nostr was the common thing in the world, what about communication? Would we continue communicating privately with our friends on other apps like simplex or telegram or phone number? or via nostr?
Nostr is 100% public, with all that that entails. I wouldn't attach my Nostr account to my identity, for that very reason. You can always have anonymous accounts that you could use to establish contact with other people, then selectively reveal your identity to them.
work pretty well
