Web of trust is just a term in this context (follows of follows)

My rule of thumb for following people is to follow "the people that I consider the most logical". To me, it doesn't matter if I'm reading a real person or a machine because logic is logic no matter where it comes from.

In that sense, the heuristic for me is that some follows of my follows will "probably" be also logical and that will give me a lot of free time by not searching as crazy through all Nostr for people to follow

Agreed. If I dig your feed then Ill prob follow some of your follows.

I don't post anything substantial thought 😂. Only comment occasionally

this was more substantial than most things on social media fren I wouldnt worry.

Another thing is: sometimes logicality can be pretty difficult to search in a sea of noise. Because I have a lot of follows, I complement all of this with following people that induce me curiosity. I can find later if they are logical or not by just reading their periodic posts

I also recently found the nostrudel WOT test tool. It's a pretty neat tool to search your web of trust in an organized and systematic way

Normally I prefer to review some reposts and follow some out of curiosity, that works well for me... but each person is a different world

yup. sometimes vastly different.
