OK, but it's not obvious (yet, go me) how they work...😜😮

Its ok

I’d like to see an experiment with using badges as part of a gamified onboarding experience. e.g. setting up your profile, adding LNURL/LN address, send first zap, etc. All this designed to bring more normies.

I never even saw badges because Damus didn’t integrate them yet

I have a few but they never show up anywere.. and its fine..

Nope 👎

Kinda unnecessary. Probably not much actual value, too easily issued and distributed.

Still don't fully understand em.

I completely forgot about the badges.

Meh. Needs more umpf.

I've never received a single batch. I'm not really sure what it's good for... 🤔😂 And I wonder if it would change if I got bunch of them. 🤔 But to me it feels kind of inconsequential to the actual purpose of #nostr...

What are badges used for?

Pretty silly

Makes my profile load 20x slower than necessary, which is nice

Don’t badge me, thanks.

Never wanted a gold star in elementary school. Don't want no badge either

Badges? What's that?

Haven’t really understood them just yet

They're kinda cool?.. When they actually load.. Like many others I don't really get how they work just yet.

Badges? We don’t need no stinking badges! https://youtu.be/VqomZQMZQCQ

maybe like them a little bit... https://media.nostrgram.co/i/2b/media_2b77418a23346.jpg

Honey Badges

I think I’ve got some but no idea where they are or what they do 🤷‍♂️

They’re fun. 🤷‍♂️

I was a little concerned that they couldn't be removed after accepting 9 of them. They can be. I don't know how useful they are. I think they could be used to signal groups that you are a part of. Too many badges on a profile seems to put a heavy load on & sometimes crash my client when viewing th...

"You know what, Stan. If you want me to wear 37 pieces of flair, like your pretty boy over there, Brian, why don’t you just make the minimum 37 pieces of flair?" They could be cool if done right. Like a signal of when you got into nostr based on the badges collected which might unlock something c...

collectible shit, good to unmask social invidious. privacy problem, if users accept them revealing some of their behaviors (like games and routines). one of thousands stuffs that work in excellent way, to keep track of. users have to think twice if accept badges, and how to

Maybe a permatag-like feature would be useful. I'm not sure what NIP-58 improves though. An optional field for tags, links or alternative text next to a user's handle might be useful for #Nostr UI

They’re the shitcoin of emojis.

Initially thought it will lead to corporate-style access badges,i.e. some notes being readable only with a certain badge. But glad it's stayed as community tokens of recognition

Meh.

It doesn't matter, zap ⚡️ is the best badge.

Never figured out how to use it and never will

Whats a badge?😅

I tried to do something with a badge but it wanted me to create an account and was too much hassle for something I didn't understand the point of

Really good marketing and alternative monetization tool. The fact that anyone can mint one is fun too. Probably not something I will use much, but they make a lot of sense.

If bud light makes badges I’m out.
