Sadly some of my mutes are of those who post like a machine and boost all of their notes

I’ve been thinking about the same thing. Maybe it could be implemented in a way that frequency could be set per public key you are tracking. If they post more than that frequency it just collapses them into one post displayed to the user. Would have a little number on the corner of the post indicating your configured frequency threshold and how many posts are collapsed. This feature would work great for some of the meme accounts my client tracks. @npub18m76...q955

My method was to create lists that narrow down the feed. I think you can also have someone on a list without following them. So you can check the list for their posts but not see them in your feed.

This is actually the main reason I mute people, besides the obvious spam bots. I try to remember to later unmute them, but sometimes forget and then people get butt hurt because they notice they’ve been muted. 😂😂 My preferred solution would be a temporary “mute for x-hours” option, where they are then automatically unmuted afterwards.

follow more peeps to drawn it out, more is less. 🙂

Used to have this in coracle, maybe I'll bring it back

I’ve unfollowed people for this, not because I don’t like their content, they’re just too damn prolific 😂

Primal fixes this 😂

There was an etiquette in early Twitter. Then the algorithm quietly downplayed the frequent posters so they didn’t spam everyone, allowing them to post non-stop.

I’m sorry, @Guy Swann … you’re talking about me, right? Seriously though, we just need more people here. 😁

Add them to lists. One more reason to not call your contact list a "follow list". We will get there on day :) View quoted note →

I don't think frequency is the issue. If I use nostr for 15 minutes per day, I will post all my notes in that small 15 minute window. For people that follow me and that check their feed at that time, it may look like spam since all they see is suddenly maybe 8 notes from me. Maybe it would be a good idea to have client-side scattering of notes throughout the day so that they are not so clustered.

This ☝️. I would also like "quiet" posters to be shown more prominently in my feed. Some people just post a couple of notes per week but they're 🔥, and they get drowned out by the sheer volume of other posts so that I easily miss them #nostrdev

Profile Lists fix this. They're just not at all integrated in most clients. Categorizing users needs to be waaaay easier. Instead of a follow button, you should just quickly be able to checkmark what list you want a user to be part of, for example. Next, selecting what users you see what "kind" of content from needs to be superfluid as well. (currently, working on designs for this) Then throw DVM curation in the mix and LFG!

Just made every Nostrich self conscious about their frequency 😂

Posting too much is woman behavior.

…an algorithm?

Some time ago in the Gossip group I wrote: > I was thinking about another function that I think could be interesting: a mode to show only one "row" for every user every X time, for ex. 1 hour. If a user post several notes in the give timeframe they are "stacked" in the same row showing a counter, and clicking it I can see all the notes, maybe using the user feed and visually applying a filter. This way I can have a more clean view of who is participating without having some people flood the feed. Then today I added: View quoted note → More Nostr will grow, and these tools will be really important to let people control the content they are going to consume. And it seems I'm not the only one who thinks this: View quoted note →

Politely ask them to post less

is this because of @Derek Ross ? 😂

@npub18m76...q955 has this option in universe feed, not main feed

This will be a necessary algorithm. Some people boost way too many posts and their boosting loses meaning. Sometimes you follow someone for their interest in one subject but don't want to see every single thing they post. The main issue at the moment is that with less than 10,000 daily active users and falling (tell me if this is wrong), NOSTR does not need anymore "features" or anymore development at all. NOSTR desperately needs a PR campaign to get more users quickly. NOSTR cannot be successful and will lose badly without more users. #grownostr

What about adding a queue? Tumblr lets you set it up so you can queue your posts/reblogs so one goes out every so many minutes/hours.

This is part of the more general idea of selecting from a variety of open source algorithms.

I've been thinking of a slider bar when I look at someone's profile that is MY setting for them. Starts in the middle. If they don't post much but it's high quality then I can move it up, too much (like lots of side comments) and I can can slide it down. Unfortunately I don't code. 😭

I feel that algorithms you select from & control will be the answer. Some of the user-controlled tools Primal is rolling out might be helpful. @miljan, can you elaborate on what's available already? View quoted note →

I have an idea. Add a bunch of algos that social media sites use to Nostr, but let users decide which one to use and how.

Maybe an aggregate post for people who post more than a user-specified amount of posts?

I create lists & view posts from lists as my mood dictates. My All follows view is pretty noisy but lists make it pleasant. Listr.lol

Same! I feel that way with HN bot

But walker America is great😂

This is great. Yes, agreed. Need this.

How-to determine which posts are relevant to you?
