Automatic upgrades are a sign of decentralization theater. They let a small group of devs control your node (or relay) as well as everyone else's, which gives them total control over the network. Opt in upgrades are more in line with the goal of eventually becoming decentralized.

It's a work in progress. See nip 02 (https://bit.ly/3qFKZ8T). Someone also published two scripts here (https://bit.ly/32NO8LE) which you can use to publish your follow list and relay list to a github jist and copy them from there into a new nostr client.

A filter nip should also probably let you block a pubkey if you don't want to see any more of their posts

Perhaps a filter nip should also let you specify a pubkey who you trust to publish updated filter lists for you on an ongoing basis. "Whatever ABC...123 says to filter, filter that." Then ABC...123 could curate in real time which might be very useful.

I think a more generic filter nip would be useful but perhaps it ought to include filtering by content (e.g. don't show me posts containing the word NFT). This could eventually lead to curator competition where the goal is to create the best sharable filters. 3 of x

My second thought is, maybe nip9 can be a more generic filter nip, where anyone can request that some content be deleted. If they are not the original author, it will only be filtered for them. If they are the original author, clients and relays may filter it for everyone. 2 of x

should relays have to check that the deleter's pubkey matches the pubkey of the original poster? My first thought is yes, otherwise people can delete other people's stuff. 1 of x

one thing I like is that a group of people can all look at the same hacker news post in nostr and comment on it together

Nostr shows me a hacker news post about nostr. Now I'm commenting on it using nostr. Wild world I guess.

What is a pubring?

I want a relay that charges money to host content for a certain time period...that would be good for spam resistance and it would incentivize people to run relays because they could make money from it

nostr and branle don't have anything to do with lightning

basically nostr uses a client/server model whereas lightning is almost exclusively p2p. One problem with a traditional client/server model is that a server can censor you. Nostr tries to get around that by ensuring you post your content to lots of servers.
