More-speech is not for the faint of heart. I wrote it as an experiment to try ideas that are different from the standard twitter/facebook/iphone.app genre. I rather like the 80's look because I'm an old programmer who came of age during an era when usefulness trumped glitz ;-).
After spending a year or so on it, I got busy with other things (books, etc.) So I haven't polished or idiot-proofed it. Nor have I been keeping up with the latest NIPs. I find it useful; and it is my primary window into Nostr; although I make use of Damus on the iPhone from time to time. Perhaps I will re-engage with more-speech once some of my book projects wind down. I welcome any help from those who might desire to go where angels fear to tread.

quoting nevent1q…fmslThe theory of operation of more-speech is:
1. Relays are categorized as trust, web-of-trust, or all.
* trust: Only events from those who are trusted (kind 3) are subscribed.
* web-of-trust: Only events from those who are trusted, and those whom they trust are subscribed.
* All: Every event is subscribed.
Users make this choice based upon the volume of the relay. A very high volume relay will have to be constrained to just 'trust'. Moderate volume relays can be relaxed to 'web-of-trust'. Lower volume relays can be set to 'all'.
2. Every event is subject to a set of filters associated with tabs on the display. The filters within a tab can select or block based upon the ids of users, events, or the content of events. So, for example, I can set up a tab that will select for all events mentioning GAZA while also blocking certain nasty people based on their ids. I can also set up a tab that selects for any event sent as a reply to a particular event id -- thus capturing the thread of an event.
