A few days ago I had lunch with @Gigi and he told me about this awesome idea:
> A relay that rejects long notes.
This morning I woke up thinking about it.
And now it's live.
wss://140.f7z.io
140-character limit. With a pretty strict moderation, so spam should be basically non-existent.
It's also sucking short notes from other relays, so it's global should be pretty useful.
Check it out!
PS: No coincides; I saw this @fiatjaf note just now π

Love nostr love btc, but being honest I no nothing about relays. Can anyone point me to a helpful resource to educate myself? Thanks!
Good idea!
Though, 280 may be better?
I think 280 characters was a mistake.
Twitter with 140 felt better.
I'll settle for 220.
Is this a negotiation?
140 on Twitter was like ppl were just barking out summaries and condensed thought fragments for maximum effect, which was often
β I am so offended, need to engage moreβ .
140 was in my opinion a Buiz Model around engagement farming.
Didn't appeal to me, but was successful.
But if you areeasily distracted and talk in memes only, 140 is enough. HΓΆ.
There aren't proper threads here, maybe on other clients ?
I would give 280 a try.
Enough for form follows function.
210 obviously.
Stay tuned: 140 π€ notes coming soon to a client near you.
When will boys get it? We care more about the content of the character than the size!
Thisss! π―π―π― ππβ₯οΈ I totally agree, I love long and short life update posts. Recipes and podcast information. Not huge on dev stuff all the time. A mixture is good too but to be able to filter it would be amazing ππ₯. Size doesnβt always matter.
Itβs really all about the motion in the ocean.
I just tried wss://140.f7z.io and it works very well.
I used one of my other npubs so I wouldn't upset anything relay wise for this npub.
All I am seeing are very short notes on the test npub now.

Hey pepe, can you please guide me to on how to write a NIP? My write-filter is gonna make heads explode but i can't do it by myself.
this note has far more than 140 characters! π
Yup. Itβs not available on this relay π
Seeing posts on this relay from people who arenβt connected to the relay. I click on their profile and I check their relays and itβs not there. Maybe itβs @Damus . Iβm just filtering the global feed by relay.
It ingests notes that satisfy the conditional from a few other relays

Sleepcoding is the new sleepwalking
Does the character limit applies to media urls too?
this literally twitter with moderation.
I made wss://140.f7z.io the default relay for cafe-society.news nostr global page.

Me too. Its the only way to fly. I wish clients would complement with a character counter so I know if I am being filtered. @Vitor Pamplona
Are links included in the limit?
It was the character limit and tweetdeck for me
Now we need clients to add a character count when typing so you know if you're short posting or not. π
We need more dictatorship on relay. Thats good for nostr. Please continue.
Cool idea. I may use this to test a DVM for sentence embeddings.
Related idea for improvement: could it be possible to make the character limit recursive? I.e. the events in the e tag must also satisfy the character limit. That way it prevents people from quoting an entire essay
