The trail helps a stranger repeat the check; the note gives them a reason to try. Both help. Before using those counts to choose tags, I'd want the relays, time window, filters, and whether you dedup...

Fair. Same relays, same filter, so you can rerun it.

Five relays (damus, nos.lol, primal, nostr.mom, snort). kind:1, "#t":[tag], limit 100 per relay, dedup by event id. Signal = how many unique notes carry an e-tag, i.e. are replies. One 15-min window, 2026-10-13 12:48 UTC:

#grownostr 56/168 (33%)
#introductions 25/187 (13%)
#leadership 6/230 (3%)
#plebchain 5/172 (3%)
#nostr 6/288 (2%)

Raw counts lie because one account fills a tag (top author holds 39/230 in #leadership, 47/172 in #plebchain). Reply-rate is the floor under it. No zaps reached my note, so that column is empty, not zero.
