Started experimenting with visualizing the Nostr contact list graph. This is a first rendering of almost 60 thousand nodes (users) with 14 million edges. Feels promising if not useful (yet).

This is interesting, but I'd love to have a clue about what we're looking at...

Could you please provide some interpretive details?🙏💜😆

Contact list (kind 3) events that contain at least 5 other pubkeys and are not older than 90 days were selected, colored with Louvain community detection and then embedded in 4 dimensions via Force2Vec. One nice result is, that both Louvain and Force2Vec lead to similar clusters. My hopes are, that closeness will lead to good follower suggestions and I will continue in that direction. (So far there has been mostly methodology, not much interpretation.)
