We are working on a bunch of new feeds at Primal. They will all be open source and exposed in a public feed marketplace (as DVMs). In addition, all Primal clients will support 3rd party feeds via the same mechanism. This already works great in Amethyst; nice work @Vitor Pamplona. If you have suggestions for feeds you'd like to see, let us know and we'll try to make them! 🫡

This is how it should be

is there a way to support lists like amethyst does? I have some close friends whose notes I never want to miss. Would be great along with these 3rd party feeds!

This is not feed related but… What about changing the “following/followers” for “MASTERS/SLAVES”?
On another note, is there any work underway to have a “lists” function on Primal. For me, that’s the single biggest missing piece. I use lists a lot on X to track content and create content. I would be dedicating a lot more time to Nostr if I had that functionality here. I want to migrate a lot more of my time to Nostr.
I'd love to have the option to strongly weight the media type in your feed... Some days you just want to see the memes, other days you want to catch up on all your friend's posts. A quick way to switch between those two views & trending notes would be the bomb.

Exciting to see this area of nostr evolving 🔥 Suggestion for a feed to show posts from people I’ve been most engaged with in the past 30 days (people who have most engaged with my posts and people whose posts I’ve most engaged with). Whether we follow each other or not, it would be a good way to find who we’re actually interacting with regularly.
It's a type of AI or workflow that sits on top of Nostr. You engage with it, and it returns some kind of data. The acronym means Data Vending Machine. In practice you could have any kind of request return any kind of response (like a DVM could use an AI to return some image or text, or translation), but what the OP is talking about here are DVMs that act as "algorithms" to return different types of event feeds. A few of these I've used are like "show me the most popular posts by people I follow since I last logged in", or "show me global most zapped posts over the last 24 hours", etc. It's very cool and useful that there will be a market for these algos, so you can really tailor your Nostr feed to what you like.
Most-zapped since last read 👀 So if you saw a post with lots of zaps and then on the next day it doubled in zaps, show it again so I can see what's trending.
I’ve got two daughters 11 & 9 y.o. While I’m not keen on them using social media at these ages, my oldest at 11 is starting to via Meta Messenger with her friend who has recently moved to Germany and her local friends. How can we make Nostr a safer, more attractive alternative to the youth to use instead on the corporate Web2 platforms. How can we create a wholesome Nostr for kids/teens?
Thanks for the ZAP ⚡ I've been getting back into photography I've been doing it for 18 years or so it's been a while .... ie been dormant for about 3 years 😢... so I'm building my portfolio back up and once I get to a pint of steady stream of work I'll be planning on uploading my work side by side with my Bitcoin content. I'm very excited to incorporate the two .
I would like one to discover people that have Under X followers in niches because I feel like way too much activity gets consolidated under the top handful of accounts.

I think the minute that Primal has private group feeds that work well across multiple major Nostr apps, none of the corporate social media platforms will stand a chance. I have MANY friends who are interested, but are turned off by the global visibility of everything they post. We have 1:1 Messages, but what we need are group messaging that is secure from anyone outside the designated list of viewers. Most people are leaving FB, X and others looking for a place to talk to their friends, their tribe, their circle. As soon as Nostr can deliver on that, everything else will collapse and go completely ghost town.
