For me it's the mechanisms here that have cemented to a certain extent the taste makers, incentivised appealing to these accounts for visibility to a certain extent - in their replies and boosts. The recommended users, the 'trending' lists etc. Regurgitating or even just copying bitcointwitter talking points and 'memes' is somewhat (unintentionally?) rewarded.
Obviously, you can just post whatever you like and not play along, you may find your experience is more like posting into a void, or an unread (micro)blog. Someone with a niche interest might post, they may get some interaction. I don't think people are ignoring or discouraging this, but they'll probably find they're not finding a vibrant community around many/any other topics, not getting a vibrant conversation on other topics, and feel somewhat compelled to return to the safe bets of bitcoin 'memes' and slogans, being reply guys to large follower accounts.
I think an alternative trending algo which takes into account follower numbers as a percentage for likes. Eg a 50k follower account with 70 likes should'nt be 'trending', but a 400 follower account with 20 likes could be... Something like this as a factor thrown into the mix. As well as a proper forum/topic -follow clients, rather than the twitter clone clients, could help this situation. Maybe.

Definitely think time is needed. I think a tweaking of the mechanisms (or meta or whatever you want to call it) could help slightly and increasingly so over time.
Is primal the most used onboarding client? I imagine it is up there. I wish they would even add some other options to their sidebar panel, something like 'hashtag discovery', even nostrband's daily trending users list is more interesting and useful than what is on offer now. No idea how hard this is to implement tho lol? #primal
I also understand the reasoning, but ditto not showing accounts who don't have a nip05 doesn't really help. But the spambot dilemma is also a nasty one to solve
I wish you could zap an RSS feed which sits in a pot or something. This could then be claimed by the person who has made the actual feed.
Like a way of convincing someone they should be here.
I suppose it's quite good that they can search nostr and find themselves, see that their feed is potentially getting followed/interactions even on an automated rss feed account.
It could potentially be some sort of way of onboarding people or convincing them that they may have an audience here, and another potentially revenue stream. 🤔
Just some vague thoughts lol

Britain will be the Bluesky of the world lol.
It'll be like a retro perpetual year 2020 theme park whilst the rest of the world moves on lolol

This is how I use nostr:

Bike lights.
Flashing or steady? (Or maybe you have fancy lights that pulse rather than flash or something other sort of option?)
#bikes (?) what's the hashtag here lol
Might don't. I believe it's because they are from somewhere in Europe where flash is not allowed maybe.
I kind of think flashing might work better in cities. I have no idea tho. Maybe both are fine 🤔
Well, actually tbf, from polling figures it seems to be extremely unpopular with the general population. (In the UK the population voted for parties promising to lower immigrantion, whilst repeatedly doing the opposite).
Western states are in favour of open borders. It does wonders for GDP stats or something ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
Do you want to manage the Nostr L's social media accounts? (Twitter and bluesky).
I'm not sure I have it in me to make a new account again anywhere lolol
Tool to see your block number and which blocklists you've been put on.
#bluesky #blocksky
Someone should make an alternative to this and have a link to nostr at the top:)

Has anyone ever used those Chinese retro game console box things that have like 100,000 games on it from all the old consoles?
(I heard they can be majorly janky and people recommend using a raspberry pi to put together your own emulator instead. I can't do this tho lol)
Does anyone else on #amethyst often get the 'Failed to upload' images? I know you have to clear cache to fix this. But I don't think a new person would know that. It's quite annoying even knowing what to do to fix this.
It could even tell you to clear cache in the notification maybe? Or a link to do it? 🤔
nostr:nprofile1qqsyvrp9u6p0mfur9dfdru3d853tx9mdjuhkphxuxgfwmryja7zsvhqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qythwumn8ghj7anfw3hhytnwdaehgu339e3k7mf0qyghwumn8ghj7mn0wd68ytnhd9hx2tch2deau
Hmm not sure it's repeatable. Seems to just come up once in a while, but can come up several times a day, sometimes not for a couple of days. Clearing cache seems to work.
But yeah I only know that cos someone told me that was a fix.
I wonder if it could be an idea to have info on the notification?
The worry is someone tries, fails, thinks it's because the image is roo large, reduces image /size quality, tried again, fails again (and again). And think ah you can only post extremely tiny image sizes?
(That's what I thought lol)
How do you see these Blocked By numbers on #bluesky #blocksky ?

But definitely interesting data to collect lol, probably almost all autoblocks too.
People seem to know that they need censor themselves in their bluesky bios too. They already have that reputation there.
I wonder if #Bluesky will get so popular that the initial 2010s Left Twitter scold adopters become a dissatisfied mimority and need another exodus..? Or if maybe they have already established such a blocking culture stronghold ? 🤔
Just found out smart bulbs exist. Do people use them?
I was looking to buy an orange bulb but coloured bulbs don't seem to exist any more or not as available. 🤔
