Would be cool to indicate how many of the people you follow also follow the profile you’re browsing. Could be a quick and dirty way to see if they are legit.

Maybe calculate some score or color code based on the ratio with tooltip info.

I wonder if what #[2] is building could be leveraged in this scenario.

It’s something you’ll likely have data for client side anyway, as it’s similar to web of trust - so caching who your follower’s follow and running a membership check can be done locally.

It doesn’t protect against someone you trust changing their profile to impersonate - as they will likely already be followed by people you follow and have follower counts, etc.

Here was an idea I had to combat it
