This is actually how I got started just reading people’s replies, seeing what they were talking about, following them, and checking out who they followed so I could follow them too. I didn’t know anyone on Nostr, but just by doing that daily, I built up my feed. Within a month, it was no longer a blank space.
I wonder if this interaction feed helps with initial onboarding.
1. You post to #introductions
2. You get some initial interactions from nostr:npub18ams6ewn5aj2n3wt2qawzglx9mr4nzksxhvrdc4gzrecw7n5tvjqctp424 welcoming you
3. You like or reply to their post
4. Then all of a sudden you have an initial derek feed even if you haven’t followed him
5. You look at notes and replies, and see derek chatting with a few people.
6. You open a few threads and like a few more posts.
7. Your feed starts to populate more from people who had posts you liked.
Seems like a nice organic way to onboard people who might not think about following?
We could use this interaction feed combined with the follow list if the user isn’t following many people at the start 🤔
