exactly

Its getting better everyday. There are quite a few people who publish one-off notes to my pyramid instead of their writes. Those notes are never seen anywhere else. There's one longterm npub who outboxes exclusively to it now. If you don't already follow that npub, you won't discover it anywhere except there (and reposts or replies). This is just what's going on with mine. Others have similar occurrences and more npubs are getting interested in special-use relays, too. With relay feeds, we can actually work with the lack of content problem that nostr-at-large currently suffers by spreading things out, converging around personalites or topics, creating differing variations of what a "low-spam" feed looks like, etc. From the compliments I've received, that's where people are getting the most value, surfacing things they _might_ want to see and getting rid of things they don't... which is a widely varying opinion.

This is my answer to change that: wss://relay.44billion.net/.well-known/nip50/is:rising/sort:top/language:en A feed with just top content from not-yet-influencers. Unfortunetly it has a tiny user base. Big relays could do wonders slicing their content into specific categories.

This has nothing to do with relay feeds as such though. A lot of the current relays that focus on this stuff are themselves communities, or something close to it; and its roughly the same group of people doing that. But what if you ask some LLM to categorize all events it can get its hands on, and curates them into seperate topic based feeds, with it running a batch every day to update it. Just spitballing but my point is, the nature of the feed itself and how it came to be can be anything.
