Lessons from the bluesky-verse: add notifications to your app for user retention. Bsky spams you with notifications (even of single likes) by default. It's working. I keep opening the app. Copy it.

I don’t think so.

I always struggle with this; where’s the line? Isn’t this a terrible, attention seeking, dark pattern that we don’t want to mirror?
And, on the other hand, are we fighting with a hand tied behind our back? Where’s the line on what ethical grounds you should yield to in the seek of adoption? Is adoption even the right metric? I thought it was but it’s definitely not to me anymore.

Which is the line that, once you cross it, you end up undermining the whole endeavor?

You enable notifications. Users can disable them if they dont want them. Its always been like that for notifications.

I don't think it's a dark pattern, just a notification that something interesting happened. I actually find it useful information.

I want to be able to turn on notifications for posts from accounts I'm interested in just like Twitter. This would drastically increase my Nostr usage
