Red dot notification prompt for non subscribers: support FOSS Damus development, subscribe to Purple

[alltheseas]

How might we ask non-purple Damus users to support, and subscribe to Damus upon onboarding and/or intermittently?

I think something simple for now like a red-dot notification to lead people in would be good and easy to implement.

How often does the prompt come up?

How often does the prompt come up?

For instance:

Once every 10 apps opens
Once every calendar week
Once every 21 notes, replies, DMs, zaps, reactions etc..

Can combine notification with notes from Damus official account

Updated with more realistic mock prompt to subscribe flow

1. receive red/pink dot notification per predefined event Red dot notification prompt for non subscribers: support FOSS Damus development, subscribe to Purple #2007 (comment)
2. click on notification dot/notification bell
3. see damus purple prompt as the top notification
4. tapping on damus purple prompt leads to damus purple in app screen

@danieldaquino @robagreda how might we make this pleasant for the eyes?

In addition to the notification, and an occasional message from the official Damus npub, there could be further prompts. Not proposing to add more to this ticket - rather suggesting as a follow on. A few options

1. a pop-up (personally I dislike this UX)
2. add to "what you missed" view/algo (not yet developed)
3. add as a pinned note (not yet developed)
4. DM from Damus npub (DMs in general are not great on Damus or elsewhere on nostr)

Suggested by @danieldaquino "translate this note" appears on non preferred languages. If tapped, translate this note leads to purple subscription prompt.

Daniel recommends note should be dismissable.
The prompt can re-appear upon pre-defined event (#2007 (comment))

what do you think @tyiu ?

I like this idea. Directly showing the user the value that Damus Purple offers

separating the translate this note to a stand-alone ticket #2016

renamed this ticket "red dot notification for non subscribers: support FOSS Damus development, subscribe to Purple"

Daniel's idea is great. This is how all great apps market their premium tiers - make the features visible, but upon interacting, you show the upsell.

Sometimes they also just give you all the features, and then let you know the features are going away. I personally do not like this method as much though it might be more effective. It just feels like you're rug pulling people.
