an example of the retardation of #nostr kinds, instead of using industry standard #mimetypes
i'm writing a full text index, and i've made a decent filter that ignores symbols and URLs and suchlike
so, actually, which event kinds even have content fields that you even want to search? textnote kind 1 and articles? there will be more, thanks to the awesome folk at GitCitadel (npub1s3h…75wz) so i will have to update the kind whitelist in the future to cover their cases, but just imagine... what if i could just filter on a mimetype prefix of "text"
omg! what a revolution!
to not have to constantly scan through hundreds of bullshits and their format definitions to figure out if they might contain relevant content to your search engine's hunger for actual fucking text
nah, what a stupid idea. only been in use for 20 years it's surely not stable at this point
*cough*
