Yes, I’m also struggling with this question. Because running a relay and a media host also seem harder with nostr. I run Pleroma over on the Activity Pub part of the fediverse. Spinning it up was less than an hour of work, and I feel like I have way more control of my stuff, and understand much better where it goes and how it gets stored and how I could move it, than I do on nostr. 

 The like button is just labeled as a number. Making it “2 likes” instead of just “2” would give a better hint to its purpose. When someone reposts a note, it can be a bit confusing to determine the original poster. Sometimes, opening the side menu causes voiceover to freeze or lag, but i cant identify why. 

 As for alt-text: this might not be a workable idea, as I haven’t gotten my head around the distributed moderation system. But would it be possible to make a program that either uses AI to provide alt-text for posted images, or filters images without alt-text out of my feed? For AI, is there something about zaps or wallets or something (still getting my head around that, too) where those of us using AI for alt-text could pay for it, to make sure it’s sustainable? Or would that be the job of a relay? IE, create a relay that refuses to accept notes without alt-text on images? I’m still figuring out how all this fits together. 

 It’s on test flight on IOS still. So my assumption is it’ll be a while.
