We are fixing the Follower number π₯³π
Now with WoT, we can load only the number of followers that truly participate on Nostr.

I want this IRL. Like, edit out the people who arenβt showing up to LIFE. π€£
Great work, @Vitor Pamplona π
Awesome stuff π π
So many people complained about this. We had to do something! :)
I'm just memeing but whatever.
The world is our oyster on nostr.
I wonder if the lack of an accurate follower count has been part of Nostr's adoption problem? Some people are really into follower counts, especially probably influencers and celebs who would have big follower counts.
I don't think so. Yes people like that number and that could have affected things. But it is a minor issue.
What do you think has been Nostr's main adoption problem?
Faulty clients and lack of content discovery
I guess it's complicated. On nostr there will never be a "followers count".
It's whatever the equation each user wants. They can just pick a provider that is more open or more restrictive on who to include.
Is this pulling from David's graperank? And calculated from whos perspective?
Yes, but calculated from my perspective. Each user can generate their own on brainstorm and the app will automatically use those.
Yes David was kind enough to calculate my grapevine. Looking forward to the next Amethyst update!
Thatβs what is all about . Trully participate
Any plans to eventually have Amethyst available for iOS?
No plans yet
Rather than an arbitrary minimum to be counted, how about in the grey area where it could be a real user with the follow, count it as a fractional follow. This might require some statistics counted with manual classification, but you could develop a weight curve where each follower is counted as the probability that someone of their WoT score is a real person.
That could work, and it is the beauty of this approach. Anyone can pick any algorithm they want. :)
No web app? When iOS?
Only Android
How?
WoT on Amethyst is based on the Trusted Assertions NIP, which allows you to choose your own WoT provider and use any equation you desire to compute the scores. The scores are personalized to your user and activity on Nostr. You can even self-host your own instance to create the scores in any way you see fit.

Follower counts are about to drop. Rid the bots.
There can be only 1 π€£π€£π€£
Yes
I like followers and following list, it's a good way to find new people. Facebook was awesome because you always found friends of friends

Will this be an option in the settings?
Follower number is not the issue really, it is essential though to see who is following so you can follow back and interact. Thx for your effort π
