What if we replaced follower counts with some other addictive metric in Nostr clients -- but one that was specific to Nostr and could actually work reliably and not be gamed?

(No, I am not talking about zaps, these can also be gamed, and this is not a trivia question, I don't have any answers.)

Maybe based on how many time your post are shared by users? Crossed with a WOT score based on your followers? Something like WOT is already implemented? 🤔

What if it was # of people I follow that follow you? "46 Friends following"
rfkill · 107w
Number of people you follow who follow them.

What if... We measure followers based on reactions? The bots aren't zapping, reposting, liking, or doing anything human other then creating hits. So unless they change it base it on interactions?? Even chats could count if the users have done it at least 5x?

We have an addictive serotonin shot here- its called zapping people sats Fk follower counts idc

Gotta take it easy on the addiction cowboy but good to understand how it works. Dopamaine hit is pretty powerful. The feeling of success makes a diff. Wordle is a simple game that got millions of people in - easy to solve, gives quick dopamine hit, keeps people coming back for more. In Walter Isaa...

I briefly thought about it. Thinking out loud, what about just counting interactions? No public followers list at all

id love for nostr to turn into the place where social platforms don't show likes or follwer counts. we don't care about those things. we're just being social with one another.

Web of trust is what makes the most sense to me. Verification and followers don’t matter. A trust score that is relevant to the accumulated of the vouchers/connections in the network makes the most sense imo

User reviews from other users.. A #NostrAdvisor review, that of course takes consideration only the reviews/vote/scores made by user and #noatriches you already follow. If they game the reviews or you don't like them, mute their reviews.
brugeman · 107w
I believe wot is the solution, and global state/metrics/algos have limited future. We don't use 'number of links' to measure the popularity of a website. We don't really even have a concept of such a metric on the web (that normal people would understand), that should tell us something. That said, ...

Tags? Of most posted content. Make it apparent what type of content the notes have, so it gives you a sense of what a user talks about.

I think the most interesting data, if there isn't already a NIP for this, would be a way of synthesizing the reputation of that hash. This would be very useful in implementations with commercial purposes, such as delivery/ride-sharing apps and marketplaces.

Note count of preceding 24 hours, or daily regardless of kind. Could be a way to show activity level vs lurker
nostrich · 107w
I don't know if this relates to that, but it might. I have been thinking about a verification system for Nostr (no, NIP-05 is not verification). Maybe the amount of verified followers would be a better metric?
