 Can any #Amethyst users help a beaver out? How to import a NIP-51 list and browse a feed and whatever else you can do with it?

#askNostr 
 Ah. I see. It's just a filter that you apply, basically. I can't see see the list itself, it is just applied as a filter. That's... Not exactly useful. I don't see anyone new on that feed at all. 
 
 No one new? It should omit the pubkeys you’re already following when it builds the list. Did it not do that? 
 Didn't seem to. Mostly just my own stuff comes up. 😅 
 Yup. It's literally a feed of me. Kinda weird, TBH  
 I see your list — yeah, didn’t populate it at all except for your pubkey. Check out my Grapevine list on listr to see what it is supposed to look like.

When you built the list were you signed in using an extension? Smartphone? 
 I can't figure out how to see lists via a different npub. 

Yes. An extension (nos2x, IIRC) on an android phone with kiwibrowser.  
 We haven’t tested list generation on android — maybe that’s why?

On listr you can browse lists of other npubs. Search by username at the bar on the top. Or go to listr main page Activity Feed and right now I see one or two My Grapevine Recommended lists recently updated — the first two I click on seem to have worked (mostly) correctly (except only 878 items, should be 1000? 🤔) 
 I get an error 504 when I click on your grapevine list. 

I dunno what else to try. 😅  
 On listr? 

See if this works:

 That mostly works. 

I can see the list, just not nyms or avatars, so I don't know who anyone on that list actually is.  
 Here’s what I see (not logged in) https://i.nostr.build/GuHLzgOKpohPWAGh.jpg  
 Everything is populating on that list now. So that's cool.

But that's not the same as mine. It's just my npub and that's it.  
 Trying the grapevine thing again, it stalls. https://image.nostr.build/448c86f69873eca7e2b8f69d0b9ad9b9695e3740f155d8e84dc12014d045967e.jpg 
 Huh. It might have finished.  
 It's working now. 

Using the hammer method worked. 😅 
 Yeah you probably need to at least refresh the page once 🔨 
 I did... But I just had to hit it again. 😅 
 I find listr useful to view the list itself. It’s easy to scroll down and check who you’re following and who you’re not.

At first we just exported the top 1000 and you’d get a mix of current follows and suggested follows, but then we figured we’d omit current follows so you’d get a fresh feed from high quality pubkeys.

Soon you’ll be able to generate multiple lists. With / without current follows; Grapevine page 1, page 2, etc 
 I still can't see the list on listr. It's just... A block?
