Yep, it’s really cool to have my Nos Team list and my Nostr Devs list in addition to the list of everyone I’m following. Sometimes I just want to check in on my team and see what they’re posting, and now I can do that with nos.social (npub1pu3…tfch)!

One interesting thing I've noticed now that we've adopted being able to put any of your lists as a feed in nos.social (nprofile…wsr3) is that it really uncenters the main ContactList.. In some ways it's really amazing, we get a google plus circles like experience. Do i want to see posts by nostr devs, tap that list, if i want my nos team, i can look at that, or the nos recommended users, or people i follow on bluesky or mastodon... I can put all the overly enthusiastic posters on a list...

But a lot of Nostr apps are built around the idea that ContactList is your primary way of calculating the social graph. Especially Nos, we particularly use it for things like mutes, content warnings, etc... By making my lists way more open, a web, then Nostr works really differently.

What's more, what would happen when it'd be easy to use somebody else's lists the same way?
