Consider following nostr:npub1qjtnsj6hks7pq7nh3pcyv2gpha5wp6zc8vew9qt9vd2rcpvhsjjqydz44v not for the amount of followers he has, as he gamed that, but for what he reveals about #nostr and what he suggests could be done to strengthen it and in turn our web of trust. #wot

Interesting read.
I’m all for relays requiring micro-payments to post, i.e. PoW, where the work has already been done (Bitcoin Lightning) to incur a cost of spamming the network. I would prefer to use paid relays so I don’t see that kind if spam - as I would also like NSFW content removed by relays as a service.
Also, a “count of followers” should be less important that some form of web of trust metric.
I agree that follower counts is only one metric, and I’m glad that it does not hold as much weight on nostr as in platforms. Some clients don’t even display it.
I look forward to the ideas that may come related to our web of trust, so far, that means getting cleaner feeds, and much stronger conversations.
The beauty about #nostr is how it’s discovering and implementing multiple solutions, which we’re already seeing, so it’s not a one size fits all.
What else do you hope to see?
I'd like to see (in nor particular order):
- Zaps that are not dependent on LNUrl :-)
- User defined algorithms
- Improved performance
- NSFW content filtering
- A solution for decentralised video hosting
- Read message tracking across clients
And specifically in nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955:
- Account switching
- GIFs/Memes
- Integrated wallet
