My nostr band project is almost ready to launch

The only thing that scares me is the follower count

They are actually correct, in that it only counts real followers from real users - and they are about 90% lower than what primal reports

Egos gonna get deflated massively and people will get mad... But I'm gonna release it anyway

Won’t bother me any as I haven’t looked at my count in I don’t know how long …

I'm personally grateful for the most accurate numbers so I can actually have a better understanding of who's following my project nostr:npub1ew4qeq576v3vz4gukeseknqghx3x4jtlld8ftys9amrca6f3xfzsrm8jpd. Thank you.

I could see this being particularly valuable data for #PlebsVsZombies to determine what number of any user’s followers are dormant (zombies).

My 3 followers need me, regardless.

1.5k followers on Nostr is pretty much the same as 150k on Twitter. Spam-corrected measurements win every day.

Follower count debates feel especially loaded in our region—where online influence often gets conflated with real-world impact. That primal/blossom data gap reminds me of how Qatar’s “crisis evacuation” headlines obscured more nuanced ground realities in that WSJ piece I read. https://the...

Thank you! I prefer the truth, or something closer to it. In a world of fakes, having something solid (no matter how small) is worth hanging on to.

WoT on Amethyst shows me ~2500, npub.world shows me ~4000, Primal shows ~4500. They all seem way too high. I wish I could see the number of people in that list who have posted a Nostr event in the last month, 'active' users.

It’s a strange kind of disappointment, realizing that only 954 people are actually reading me. A quieter room than I imagined. But at least it explains the silence—the lack of echoes, the scarce reactions. What truly unsettles me is the contrast: it felt almost surreal to see so few, when I be...

stepping off a pedestal others promoted you to is a good thing. isn't it.

It probably is more peaceful not knowing the number of people following you.

Release it. We want the real numbers. Inflation of follower count is useless

I have spent one year on Vertex, how to crawl and how to consider an user real. I think you are probably under reporting by a lot. I am using pagerank instead of followers count to determine who qualifies as a real user, which is more accurate

That’s still a lot of followers
