Reposting via kind-1 is horrendous and needs to be removed as an option in Olas. It creates unnecessary clutter/duplicate posts in clients that support both kinds. But also, I understand why people do it. Having 2 different event kinds for images now means the content you post is siloed, which is the opposite of how nostr is “supposed” to work.
I do see the use case for having a curated photo album for our nostr profiles, so in that way kind-20 can make sense, but only if it is broadly supported by clients. Right now it feels disjointed and not really that useful. And I hate the reposted kind-1 copies. lol
