Primal devs: "Babe, sorry I'm going to have to cancel our Valentine's date tonight, we all have to work late... Yeah, one of the investors publicly said my work was shit, so it looks like we are all working all weekend... I'll make it up to you, babe, promise... Babe? Hello?!"
Primal... Is shit. #nsex
also I thought we hated algos?
We hate forced algos, but stuff like notes from the people you follow, their follows would be great
Kind 30000 is a good algo
We've all implemented that stuff on the relays because clients refused to budge. We've kept the application logic in the clients, but we've moved some of the business logic to the relays, to get around the client stonewalling.
now it's time to fork the clients
We're already doing that.
Wait there's algos? See I thought there were no algos. At least for our feeds of who we follow
Now the influencers want to algo you...

GrapeRank is a FOSS and configurable WoT recommendation algo for Nostr.
@david has a demo live RN and my own will be coming soon.

I like the name

My all-time favorite algo is and always will be TIMELINE.
WHAT SHOULD BE THE PARAMETERS TO BUILD A USEFUL ONE?
I want a relay that tracks my eye movements and notes every tap or navigation action and has my medical records etc etc just like Facebook
lol ironic that this post is going to end up at the top of the primal trending algo

LFG! π€ͺπ«³

The notifications are a bigger problem

I AM THE ALGORITHM

try the nostr algorithm at https://nostr.thecaptain.dev
It stalls on sign in. Can't see anything.
make sure of the following:
1. you are logged in
2. app relays are set
3. give it about 30 seconds to initially load notes
on my end, it works with your profile:


Okay, I managed to login with Laeserin, and set the relays. And I saw some notes.
I think it doesn't work because I only look at global.
how effective it is is entirely a function of how much effort goes into curating your lists. it also depends on specifying your favorite lists, which I explained in another post.
in a future version, I want to offer the ability for a new user to fork existing lists from other users, or subscribe to someone's list

wss://algo.utxo.one
@utxo the webmaster π§βπ» algo seems to be timing out for me
Ok try now
Ignore the metadata requests, my relay selection code still needs work. But sub 08321708 isn't returning anything after 7 seconds.


Also see nothing, now.
GOOD THING YOU CAN USE OTHER CLIENTS AND OTHER ALGOSπ«‘
Freebird algo is π₯ though. Repeats after 20 or so notes though
FACTS
Also, PEOPLE recommendations on Primal blows. Oh look, I can follow Adam Back, who hasnβt posted on nostr in over a fucking year!
#yestr
I wish I don't have to see the same person post 500 times on my feed. I almost wanna unfollow those guys but I like them (no not you Odell!)
Solution: Just follow more people to "dilute" their notes. π
Following more people on here changed my experience big time.
If you follow a few hundred people who are active and there is still one person showing up noticeably more, then yeah might be time for an unfollow
We need a GM feed
It's not even 'trending' it's 'notes from the users with the most amount of followers, plus some people we think you miss from bitcointwitter'. Bit I suppose that's too long to say. :)
I thought nostr was supposed to escape the algorithms
Why is nostr quickly turning into other platforms?
We got algorithms and censorship
Try clicking the search bar on Primal Web, top-right.
And then look at the list that pops up, as suggestions, before you even start typing.
we'll escape to better algorithms
Agree. The Primal Tending feed could be vastly improved to be more useful for users.
For example: my GM PV note every morning should not trend. It's not that special, but it tends every day.
DVM feeds / Feed marketplaces at least give users a wide variety of feeds to choose from. This is the way forward, IMO. More work needs done here to surface these feeds and their content.

Primal is Shit
Needs a complete rewrite.
Users are being played.
It's shit because it's centralised
You know, it's improved tons in the last 6 months and has become my main app.
You know,
VC boys gonna VC
gang gang
Someone needs to start making PRs that slowly remove tiny bits of code from the Primal repo until there is no code left

WHY ISNβT THIS NOTE ON THE TOP OF TRENDING LIST?
