I think I underestimated the importance of the Global feed. Everybody is asking for it.

Do you folks want it in the home screen?

Do you use it that much?

Why is it so important to you?

It shows life and is great in this time for discovery. I hope we never lose it. Even when it’s impossible to keep up with. It’s still the pulse.

Got to dip in to see what the new nostriches are doing, plus if you don’t have a good set of follows you need to build your feed up

Yes , on the search part of the app , doesn't it show the global feed ? I'm seeing everyone on that part .

Is the public chat essentially the global feed or no? if not, then yes, i'd like it as it allows me to find new nostriches to follow.

It’s where I find new people to follow.

I thought search tab is the global stream. No?

i like it, nicest way thinkable to feel guilty of wasting time.

Global feed is a powerful feature. Can be ignored when you don’t need it. But it connects us to the rest of nosterverse that we’re part of.

Note that refresh speed on global is a notable challenge, might also be worth noting to users how much data/bandwidth it adds (per relay?)

Its where I've spent the most time so far!

It's important until you get a critical mass of people you follow.. right now there's only Devs and cryptobros I am still waiting for the people I follow on Twitter.
Dielan · 171w
Yeah its pretty important actually. Especially for people coming from ActivityPub not twitter (we exist)
Jason Hodlers · 171w
No. It's great under the 🔍 (which is the intuitive place for it, IMO), and the Nostr chat is good enough, too.
Colonial · 171w
It's important while nostr is young. Allows to find eachother easily.
Red · 171w
I rarely use it, so imo keep it where it is
daniele · 171w
Could be nice to have keywords filtered global feed(s)

Not fond of them but they are useful to find new users. Media and profile pics from users you don’t follow should not be automatically downloaded. The feed moves fast, so load it when opening it or with user action.
