b35363 on Nostr: The limited reachability was the first thing that bothered me when I first started ...
The limited reachability was the first thing that bothered me when I first started playing with Nostr.
Since january, I'm conducting a research paper on implementing Gossip and other dissemination algorithms on relays. It really brings me joy and irritates me at the same time 🤣😁....
I feel like everybody's starting to finally aknowledge that there's an issue and what I've been laughed at in 2022 is finally a great concern now
cgi-bin (npub1nft…mzqs) exspiravit (npub1dy7…ljz5) Copinmalin (npub16zl…evpc) Loïc Morel (npub1x2k…6jgd) If thinking in the nostr email model, this is like saying “why doesn’t my client autocomplete the address when I type bob@“.
Well why would it? What bob are we talking about? What email server is he on?”
A big part of what we’ve been masking in our clients is feigning decentralization via a centralized blob of relays. Thats what damus has been doing to make it friendly to users. But its a lie. There is no one global feed. If we want nostr to take off we need to change our clients and ux to stop pretending there is a constant set of relays that eveyone is on.
Damus is the worst offender here, i will start putting more effort into this front. note10d2…xnj0
