I was asked to test @Geektoshi's new #nostr web client under development, naturally I couldn't resist! :catJAM: One thing that stands out to me, is that it definitely feels "different". I think it's because he built his own rendering engine for nostr events from what I've read. I like how super-clean it is! Lots of work to be done, but I think it's already an awesome start to what could be a great web client! Feedback so far: - It's great to see that any event kinds can be shown, but I think each kind will need specific formatting to make it contextually relevant in the feed. - If I click Follows or Global, the kinds tabs go back to the default setting of "All": I'd like that to persist, so if I'm on "Streams", it stays there. - Would love a way to specify a relay, like Follows | Global | Relay - Love the filtering by kinds as tabs!

I think @AQSTR and @zapwork are highly interesting... I tested aqstr today, and the tasks were indeed almost instantly detected as done, and immediately paid out. I have to admit that is very cool! I think there's value in things like this, but I also wonder about the validating effort beyond what can be automatically gauged. For example, asking people to like, reply, repost or quote... these are fine and good. But I'd consider these "micro tasks". What about more high value things, like: - Submitting a PR to a git repo. - Uploading a picture of you doing something. - Writing a more in-depth post about a topic. Part of me feels like an element of manual validation may be required for higher value tasks. As for @zapwork, I think this is also a highly interesting take in terms of online recruitment for jobs. There's nothing much posted there yet, but from the application process, it feels like it could be a good match for some jobs such as copywriting, or ad-hoc stuff. Particularly where reputation/trust metrics can be used. Interesting space that's developing! Really neat to see it on #nostr!

basically, kinda yeah. 😹 View quoted note →
