Advanced Search
Primal has the most advanced search of ANY social media. We built this tool early in order to give users more control over how they view content on Nostr. You can create & save feeds based on many metrics.
The feeds you save can be reordered to your liking. To access advanced search in the app, click on the search icon in the top right of the app twice.
Here are some of the metrics you can use to create feeds:

Here's an example of a few feeds that you can create & save.

Discover Content & People
We've built tools to make it possible to discover interesting content & people to follow.
Check out follow packs on mobile devices by clicking the explore page in the bottom right. You can follow people and even save the feed to your home feeds from these packs. Here is how to create one of your own, for all of the nostr network to see:
