Does anybody else see the need for a location-aware kind1 feed?

Open vitorpamplona opened this issue 1 year ago • 5 comments

I want to post things that should only be shown to users in my neighborhood/city. They are not supposed to show on everybody's default feed.

For instance, If I want to make a question about a school nearby, I don't want that question to be a kind1 and go into everybody's feed. It's not for that audience.

Shall we create a kind1 copycat event type that requires location?

I've been thinking about how to best do that with existing NIPS and this seems way easier. Interested to hear what the drawbacks might be

How would we handle the challenge of the clients knowing what relays to connect to since one would be interested in events based on location and not individuals? Unless some relays were dedicated to locations? Or else a version of tag groups that somehow works alongside the location data

We could make a purplepages for relays. The new Location-based NIP could check that purple page listing for which relays are concentrating posts of each location.
