See a good note, boost a good note.
We have no algorithms here to do this for us. It's up to us to be the algorithms for not only ourselves, but for others too.

We are the algo, the filter, the shoulders
I feel that the algorithm of interesting people and hashtags works very well
Totalmente ✨

Absolutely. We have to do the work to follow the right amount of people and the right people.
Was just thinking this
Or reply to it
That is not a boost. 
But it still can help revive or continue exposure and engagement on a note
You're not wrong here. Any form of engagement is good.
We must stand on each others shoulders , so that we may reach the sun (or at the very least , the top shelf , where they keep the nicer biscuits ) .
we don't want to get too close to the sun though. that didn't work out so well for Icarus.
Nah, if Icarus had dev's like ours he could have just put in a PR for the wax wing problem and they'd go and invent duck tape to fix it or something.
Would have been fine.
Does this appy to boosting some of my older memes during busier time zones? Feels wierd boosting your own shit. Thoughts?

Look at us.
We are the algo now.
And broadcast them, too!
View quoted note →
quote posting should automatically rebroadcast the quoted note.
same with replies
@elsat please 💜
Absolutely! Are there clients that do this? It should be the standard.
@Vitor Pamplona @jb55 please 👏
Really any interaction including reactions and zaps should do the same.
Hmm. Or at least the note should be fetched so it's not showing as post not found if no common relays exist. Essentially the gossip model.
I'll allow it. Devs are amazing.
We are so fetch.
what is the gossip model? i always keep on hearing about it, but i don’t know what that means
It makes everyone talk 😂 A client would go out and fetch the notes from relays even if the note writer and the note reader don't share common relays.
ohhh, makes sense 💜 thank you so much
It’s enabled by the more complex bech32 ids like nprofile and nevent because they can contain embedded relay information.
Clients that handle it can then use that info to manually fetch from the note authors relay.
I don’t think many clients fully implement this yet though. Because it’s pretty complicated.
@hodlbod does coracle?
ohh, thank you jeff 💜🙏
Yep. Coracle doesn't re-broadcast though, because hints and nip 65 are usually enough. It's not a bad idea though.
Be the algorithm you want to see. View quoted note →
How does reposting differ from broadcasting? When I repost something, it appears on my timeline. But where does it appear when I broadcast? I am using Primal now
Yep, last version of Amethyst re-broadcasts on quotes, boosts, replies and mentions to posts.
I will suggest people to follow hashtags,
How?
Click on a hashtags like this one #bitcoin, and then, click on "follow"

Damus does it when replying but doing it on quoted reposts is a good idea too
you can
Yeah i added this awhile ago
you don’t have testflight?
not sure if open invites are full already, but
Join the Damus beta

always 20 seconds ahead of you 🤣💜
needs a comma
it’s been one of the main selling points for a long time 😭🤣
yeah I don’t see any details on TestFlight users
How often to you check the crash reports? I’ve been sending a bunch.
I get them but the navigation crash doesn’t seem to have an easy fix, its why I havent pushed a new app store version in awhile. I may have to revert to the buggier navigation that we had before, but at least it doesn’t crash.
The custom reactions are the issue I’m having. Crashes maybe 4 out of 5 times.
When you repost/boost, everyone who follows you will see the note.
When you broadcast it, it'll be broadcasted to the relays (servers) you're subscribed to so the note might live longer.
That's a follow 💪
Use hashtag like #bestofnostr so we could follow? 🤷🏻
Receive or send custom mojis cause the crash?
cc @Suhail
Oh thought i fixed that…Will check it again
🍆 crash 4 out of 5 times 🤔
Boosts should refresh a note to the top of the feed while removing duplicate boosts further down.
i’d like to see an algo marketplace develop and users can choose. plain chronological feed has shortcomings
especially if they pay for the boost in advance 🤣
especially if the boost is paid for in advance 🤙 pv

Hmm is it still happening now? I thought we fixed it cuz I don’t get it anymore.
While algorithms themselves aren't inherently evil, their potential misuse raises concerns. The absence of algorithms in the mentioned context underscores the responsibility humans bear to act as moral algorithms. Algorithms in digital spaces, if not ethically designed and monitored, can indeed manipulate or "brainwash" people by curating content that reinforces preexisting beliefs. Nurturing these qualities ensures that human actions, both online and offline, counteract algorithmic pitfalls, helping individuals and society resist undue influence and making responsible choices for themselves and others.
This is just how people always communicate, no?
Speak about common interests, share cool shit, follow people they value, express gratitude, push out value back for Sats and status..
It's cool out here. Algos are useful to recommend music on Spotify not to intermediate conversations.
Yeah, still happening in build 15. I just tried using a custom emoji on the note from @jb55 above and it crashed. Sent a report.
Sending.
Hmm it actually only crashes when I do 🤙 with a long press. Will look into it now.
same for me, just tested it
That’s what I’m seeing, but it happens with all the emojis in the list. Sometimes I slide it back and forth a bit and try to sneak up on them.
Are boosted notes sent to the top of other’s feed? I thought it was just chronological posts from people you follow WITHOUT a system to put someone’s note ahead of another note.
Or are we just becoming Reddit 2.0 with upvotes and down votes?
Algorithms are coming here
Also zap a good note too

Ya this is I always Agree... Boost Notes is helping people to understand #nostr and #studybitcoin ⚡🟠
#thisistheway #grownostr View quoted note →
Technically we have them in several clients already.
What other clients have them? Only one I know is @primal
Snort and Iris both have trending posts and people.
Algorithms not here,
We boost the good notes we see,
For all, we must steer.
#haiku
Better this way!
Yeah, we're back at pulling the cart ourselves instead of letting the oxen do the work :wink:
💯 and we need to evolve the tools towards the goals of sovereignty in how we get informed, and away from the force-feed algorithms
The non-algo needs balance, this note is lame.

Haven’t used either since they first came out. Glad they’re working on this. Thanks!
Everything in its natural flow
"See a good note, boost a good note".

we need a manual, numerical scoring function for posts. this will bring way more signal than likes or zaps.
Being flooded with good notes today! Wow! 👍
Aye aye, sir
It’s wild to watch user behavior learn and adapt to this. So early here. 💜
So true
No... It is not "just how people communicate" It's how the masses are manipulated and others are censored.
If I use a question tag it makes me correct, no? 🙄
