Are there any groups other than Bitcoiners well-represented on here already? If so, who do I folllow?

Working on a book about decentralized identity and reputation systems. Identity = an account on a website, email address, public key, etc. Reputation = the graph, or network attached to any of these identifiers Would you read it? What would you like to learn from it?

Since 'likes' don't really do much around here incentive-wise, apart from showing the receiver you liked their message (which was once the main reason for its existence), I'm going to start and try to reprogram my brain to throw less likes around. The main reason I'm acting like The Incredible Likeman(tm) on Twitter is due to its algo. My main driver for giving out so many likes on there is to add "weight" to the reputation scoring mechanism Twitter uses. That's not needed necessary on here, and so I want to get back to basics and make "like" scarce again. #Like4Real

Working on a free ebook on decentralized identity and reputation systems. It will be the most comprehensive book on the matter to date. Currently editing it and am at page 123 of 215.

What's needed for a decentralized GitHub? I'm only familiar with the basics of Git and never really used GitHub meaningfully. What building blocks would you say are needed for an MVP?

Spam Filter Idea for Nostr https://medium.com/@2W/spam-filter-idea-for-nostr-ee2a8f7d192e

#[0] Shout out for the performance improvements. 🤙

I love Nostr, think it's awesome in all sorts of ways. I probably won't be using DMs on it in the foreseeable future though, given all meta data is public. I'd rather have a company try and keep it secure with the chance of it leaking increasing by the day than to broadcast it in public. Most preferred solution would be e2e encrypted sockets between clients, somehow, some day.

Got links about existing solutions to mitigate spam on Nostr? Thanks in advance! (already found related issues on Nostr and Damus Github)

Gm! 🤙 Looking for something to read/learn about existing solutions to mitigate spam on Nostr. I found issues on the Damus and Nostr Github with suggestions in them, but was hoping someone could tell me how it works in practice without having to sift through all the code. I would love to run a relay and go through the code myself, but I have too much other stuff to focus on right now, unfortunately. However, I am finding the time to write an article about Nostr and a possible way to add relatively simple and efficient spam and Sybil-resistance that I'll publish here (first!) when it's done. That's why I'm looking for more info to make sure I get things right and to hopefully not waste anyone's time. Hope it'll help, and thanks for yours in advance!
