Quiet looks super interesting, it's like Discord/Slack but actually decentralized/P2P. Messages and content are synced between devices using IPFS/OrbitDB and connects made through Tor. I made a Nostr community on it as an alternative to using Discord for Nostr dev discussions: https://tryquiet.org/join#QmTKmdzHG4S7QfTEXY1awK8jC136cjQGzmo9V5goUuDHnN=zf7fjrtwejtmx2tgpfw2moo2vftrinqnapk275nwc3n5xmntinwffdad&k=8kUpddb3u8vZ8p0AzZRXn%2FTkwXIbi1ctbj8D5Q3D1d4%3D&o=03027974a60f062ba4ac1f9e3f5337eca1dfffacdc3eb3ac88b384f04311e8f792 nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqak8r2hr5jglrk0wc37t59lz98x6gyf6pwaku6hpwakhvslznjh6qqsq8qwhk9kqudqz4w0z4088vkx4cjzha9arvfk8k98fkvprn05judcxzy7xm

Was thinking about this the other day, and it inspired me to start working on what I call VibeTag. The idea behind it is to be able to tag any content on the internet with a “vibe”/“sentiment”, whether it’s a nostr post, something on Mastodon, Twitter, even entire websites. This will initially focus on whether the sentiment of the content is positive (informative, funny, etc) or negative (misleading, rage-bait, vulgar in general) etc. As more and more content is tagged in either direction, it learns what words/phrases are associated with positive content vs negative. The tags and info about associated content would be synced across content through the beauty of Nostr relays. This essentially allows there to be a straightforward algorithm that you can take with you across the internet that automatically generates/updates a list of words associated with shitty content and hides it from view. This is something I’ll be integrating into nostr:npub16heelc6crh3ggnpmzwd97pcf4eeqewu9wak7hfe9fkh0f3p00cvq6xz8zz but also will be a library anyone can integrate into their project! nostr:note19aldr26lyw2lqatcgqscyt3kpq76hcpwtwmglypvqqgx3m27fsaswa8rr6

Hmmm I find this part the most intriguing: "Syncing: IPFS and OrbitDB, an IPFS-based CRDT, ensure that all data (messages, user data, etc) syncs between peers with eventual consistency. Asynchronous messaging: because messages sync to all members, members can communicate without being contemporaneously online, provided that there is "continuous liveness", a continuous chain of online peers who each sync the latest updates, between the sender and the recipient." This kind of sounds like how Scuttlebutt works, but using IPFS+OrbitDB so perhaps the performance would be much better?

What ever happened to these discussions around storing files directly on relays (those who choose to accept file upload events)? nostr:npub180cvv07tjdrrgpa0j7j7tmnyl2yr6yr7l8j4s3evf6u64th6gkwsyjh6w6 nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z nostr:npub1acg6thl5psv62405rljzkj8spesceyfz2c32udakc2ak0dmvfeyse9p35c nostr:npub1l56z85xvaplh3033l8h2x9thypamu0d2hyqnxkw0ujuntqm8asaqh99sza nostr:npub12262qa4uhw7u8gdwlgmntqtv7aye8vdcmvszkqwgs0zchel6mz7s6cgrkj nostr:npub1skfmmcet2244yx8xn5xjfcmwg3u4mcjdndpd2gcjkq4qfycm6xtql0xa7d nostr:npub1jlrs53pkdfjnts29kveljul2sm0actt6n8dxrrzqcersttvcuv3qdjynqn https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/719 https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/345

Wait people are pissed about this? I would love for all social networks to limit political content, as long as it's *all* political content. If I want to learn about a candidate or a government office, I can look at their websites. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzq8yhv76xqqmqe4svss5yuxyltew3xw024a57uyluzumc6jwfjgv3qyd8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnndp5hgen0wf3k2tn0dejj7qghwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejz7qpqvspc7ucrjv8xkqv40vmacrungjn5r7llekskcfz83svs748m5p2sarj0u0
