What’s the plan going forward? How does nostr allow for communities? I like the reddit lemmy style set up. How do we get that on nostr

satellite.earth has growing support for communities. It’s not great as is. I’ll make you a mod of the exploding-heads community there. Every post needs to be approved by a moderator. Thats just the way it was implemented. Currently thats kapow, you and me. I can write a bot that auto approves known users I guess. Shouldn’t be that hard. Nostr also supports chat, twitter with hashtags. More work needs to be done to make it as good as lemmy for this type of content but it’s getting better everyday.

I think we could stream line communities but i literally have no idea how to set up a dmt community on the platform, its going to be hard to convince ppl to basically use a a twitter clone with less censorship vs twitter or gab (gab is essentially twitter and reddit had a baby with less ability to find posts cz its all a feed) nostr is a twitter feed. Finding old posts is going to be a bitch, idk how i feel about that. It was already hard here but now this. Im not hating but still its a pain. Can we develop a preset hashtag option intergrated into the website that users can save on their own cz i aint downloading a phrase save app for hashtags and i hate typing out hashtags, i honestly feel like unless i type out hashtags i get lost in the mix of an endless feed

this is absolutely a strong possibility that we’ve talked about. It’s a good bit of dev work and can’t happen over night.
To be honest we don’t really have to. I emailed tens of thousands of Canadian convoy doners to use lemmy. I reached out across multiple social outlets. And you and me together probably only brought like maybe 100 people. There are already more users on nostr than lemmy. It’s been mentioned on the Joe Rogan podcast. And it solves a real problem. And that is with de-platforming. You keep your followers when banned.
Keep using Gab it’s great. But it has a single point of failure. and that is Andrew. When he gets arrested,killed or it becomes financially unviable it’s over.
With nostr, if I stop hosting my relay tomorrow. Most people won’t notice.
Nostr does have communities (just kinda garb), chats, and hashtags. We can make those hashtags work better for communities. And add relay level moderators to make it less spamy.
