In light of recent Hellthreads, I am curious if people have suggested the ability to tag one's entire follow list. Amethyst allows copying of @taggednames which converts to @npubs which is currently one of the most effective ways to copy and paste groups of @npubs on mobile. Is there any client that allows for an @follows type of command? Is there any reason Amethyst or other clients would want to avoid implementing this feature? Someone mentioned to me that it would be easily abusable by bots, but a user would have to follow the bot for them to be tagged. So I don't see why not.

I wondered, would it lead to everyone posting with @everyone or @follows to increase traction? Maybe, but I think only to an extent. What it would allow for me to do personally is determine whether or not I want my followers to be notified of a post I make. Which seems rather useful when polling. But plenty of notes aren't meant for everyone directly, so I don't see much way or means to abuse it that can't be solved by unfollowing or muting.

As of now, mass adoption of this feature would create a second sort of feed within one's notifications. i.e. "The posts in my global feed contain every note posted since I last checked. The posts in my notifications are more demanding of my response or interest."

Curious if this has been talked about somewhere.
