OK, I know Nostr clients don't have "an algo", and that's supposed to be a good thing. But I have a very basic problem. I check nostr, and I only see stuff from the last few minutes. I would need to scroll a long way to see everything from the last 12 or 24 hours.
Would it be a good idea for Nostr clients to allow me to label certain npubs as "always show first"? Like I don't want to miss any of their posts?

This is already possible and easy to achieve ๐งก
#NoorNate has an option called Tribes. You can build a Tribe with people whose notes you don't want to miss, and it creates your own timeline with just those people. You don't even have to follow them for that.
Got a link for that?
I am hoping @primal fixes the ordering of posts. I don't understand why default isn't newest to oldest, with other options available. Looking at a 12 hour trending feed that the first post is 35 minutes, then the next might be 11 hours ago. Doesn't make sense. Makes it appear there is some sort of algorithm in place that wants you to see certain notes over others
You can make your own algo.
I normally browse 'trending 24hrs' and 'most zapped 24hrs' before I go to the 'Latest' chronological.
This sort of feature would be great. Iโd like a better solution to view posts based on categories and have notifications of when new posts arrive. It seems like the technology is there and we just need a better UX to guide users.
