Memo needs to add a mute/block function QUICKLY. Im starting to see SPAM more and more frequently. This needs to be priority #1. #Memo
replied 2253d
I think other features are needed before the #Memo mute button. We want more transactions on the network...
replied 2253d
If the mute button is activated on #Memo, it could possibly slow adoption since users won't feel their voice is heard and stop posting...

Right now Memo is like a hybrid between 4chan/Twitter/and reddit.

The mute function should only work on a per account basis. The post will still show on the blockchain and as a default until an account mutes that person.
replied 2253d
I'm not trying to be critical but what do you pay #Memo?
replied 2253d
Nobody pays memo, but I want it to be substantial content, not ads and people telling me that Obama fucked my wife and is the antichrist gay lizard jew muslim.
replied 2253d
Loaded question, but what type of content would you like to see? Or what usage would you be looking for?
replied 2253d
Not what I want to see, but what I don't want to see. I just want a way for users to be able to hide/mute content that they don't like. As Memo grows, so will incentive to spam ads.

You pay to get your post on the blockchain. Right?
replied 2253d
Yes. But not memo.
replied 2253d
Also, who enables #Memo to grow? The reader or the poster?
replied 2253d
We want to encourage new posts on #Memo. More posts = more transactions.
replied 2253d
Ok
replied 2253d
Even if it's a bunch of "$100 = 100 penis enlargement pills, grow your dong 99 inches in 3 hours!" posts?
replied 2253d
Theoretically, if we got 1 million new posts, that is 1 million new transactions on Bitcoin Cash...
replied 2253d
It's about the content.
replied 2253d
There must be an incentive for content creators to add content to the network.
replied 2253d
But at the same time you don't want memo to be filled with penis enlargement pill ad posts. Pretty sure that would stifle growth as well.
replied 2253d
I understand your stance. But, we need to figure out a reasonable balance here. Again, we want more transactions on Bitcoin Cash don't we?

We want more utility. Transaction count is not an end, just a signal we are doing well.
replied 2252d
Utility will improve as transactions increase. The network effects grow. We need a bigger footprint.
replied 2253d
We need to consider what the platform would be like if there were 10x 100x and 1000x the users. I think there's a reason Twitter doesn't have a front page like this.

It's better if Memo.cash just points to Memo++ for user moderation of their feeds istead of merging it into its natural monopoly on Memo protocol communication
replied 2253d
Who is #Memo's customer? The reader or the poster? The reader doesn't pay to read posts. Poster pays to post...
replied 2253d
They don't pay Memo.

replied 2253d
They still pay to post. Lucky I got given my stash for posting here.
replied 2253d
You pay to make a transaction on the blockchain, not to post to memo - it doesn't give you privilege. If you want a echochamber and ads, then thats what you would get...
replied 2253d
...as nobody would want to come to see a bunch of ads and crazy ramblings, with a substantial post here and there.
replied 2253d
One is a BCH issue, the other is a Memo issue.
replied 2254d
Check out Memo++ browser extension. It includes a mute feature.
replied 2254d
Oh i have it installed, but for other users (esp. the new users), the SPAM will quickly drive them away, and add fuel to Core supporters.
replied 2253d
There're many options. Could have levels of blocking, hide or just collapse. If on chain, then could choose thresholds for blocking based on other's blocks w/ weight by who you follow.
replied 2253d
I was thinking something like tipping a certain amount to mute them. When you tip x amount, Memo will mute/block that user from your account.
replied 2253d
It would be nice to choose the amount it costs to mute users.
replied 2253d
Maybe #Memo gets half of the proceeds...

Just use Memo++

Very good point.
