So does npub.world uses your DVM or not? If a competitor were to offer personalized PageRank scores via DVM then npub.world would not accept them?
Discussion
It uses an HTTP/JSON-based DVM.
A competitor should investigate exposing the exact same API under a different hostname and then clients could decide to implement support for both at the same time without having to write two different integrations.
That would be easy enough to do but there’s no sense building out a spec that no one is going to use and if the spec is about to be upended anyway.
To my knowledge there are 2 teams eager to offer personalized WoT scores, team vertex and team grapevine, but 0 clients ready to consume them. Why is that?
We need at least one client to step up and say: I’m ready to ingest personalized WoT scores from a third party provider. Here’s how I want to use them and here’s an outline of the spec I want to use to ingest them. We could start with personalized PageRank to keep things simple and consistent. It can be used to rank any content whatsoever by author. Basically, an alternative to ordering content chronologically. You’ll quickly have two competing providers: Vertex and Grapevine.
Are there any clients interested in this?
I am no longer involved with Vertex but afaik there are a handful of clients already using it, not zero
Ah, I didn’t realize that (either of those things).
nostr:npub1kpt95rv4q3mcz8e4lamwtxq7men6jprf49l7asfac9lnv2gda0lqdknhmz do you want a competitor to offer personalized PageRank via WoT DVM? The point would be to demonstrate interoperability, which I think is important.
Or is the dvm spec gonna die on the vine? I’ve only partly been listening to the dvm debate. Most of my attention has been focused on trying to optimize the sync pipeline between strfry and neo4j.
no man, clients are using Vertex.
npub.world, Zapstore, nostr:nprofile1qqspu5lfqrpmh302622jzhh7y7ev340m690m8hvppk3svdn5edep8vspzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgjwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxqgkwaehxw309aex2mrp0yhxummnw3ezucnpdejqhv4kcu, and a big one I can't mention yet
I'm confused, why would you do that? npub.world is a product for end users. If you want to compete with it, you can use Vertex DVMs (or any other) from client, server or wherever you want.
ofc not. It's my client, and its sole purpose is to showcase Vertex.
