The void shouted back 🌍 ... here's what it said
⚡ I SHOULD ENABLE LIGHTNING
One overwhelming response was I need to enable lightning. I did have a self custodial LN setup with zaps once, but my channel partners closed on me and I haven't found new peers. I'm not using a custodial solution so my options are probably to find someone willing to peer and/or use an LSP.
👥 I AM THE ALGORITHM
Many people told me that I am the algorithm and that if I want to been seen I need to be very active interacting with people such that they interact back. My humble opinion is that this is not actually addressing the issue. Primal is great, and like most nostr clients I have used it has a few feed options ("algorithms").

This means that 5 of the 6 options are either content which already has lots of engagement or content which has just been posted.
I think what's missing is a more sophisticated algorithm which takes into account how many posts someone has made. If you follow bob and alice and bob makes 100 posts a day and alice makes 1, you probably don't want to use any of the existing algorithms, you probably want to see that 1 post by alice, even if it doesn't have any engagement yet, you follow her for a reason (presumably)

quoting note18z3…tryqI want to use nostr more but it feels like I am shouting into the void, probably a skill issue
