Hmmm that’s a bit of a slippery slop. The way it’s laid out makes it look like all those people have signed and approve the dev/signer. Rather than just follow them. I’d probably change the wording and layout a bit.
Data is coming from nostr:npub1kpt95rv4q3mcz8e4lamwtxq7men6jprf49l7asfac9lnv2gda0lqdknhmz nostr:npub176p7sup477k5738qhxx0hk2n0cty2k5je5uvalzvkvwmw4tltmeqw7vgup - is this not working correctly?
Could you please ask if it's a mistake before accusing me of affiliate scam?

It says "follow", whats unclear?
Visually, I would separate it more. UI isn’t easy. I definitely thought it read as that dev was Also signed and approved by all those others. Bold and make the fonts different perhaps. So there is a clear delineation between. Signed and Followed.
(All said, genuinely)
Signed by: abc

Developer is also followed by these people you may also know: xyz
I get it, I will try to improve that in the next version
I think this is a great opportunity to debate how to interpret something that is actually signed ( followers, posts, applications, etc.).
For myself, I only interpreted as how the signer is ‘known’ in the community as indicated by who is following them. No endorsement. I recall when we had the spammers, the worst thing you could do is follow a spammer, because it gave them social validation. This is kinda the opposite thing because I am looking for how well the app signer is known.
What’s really cool here is that everything is a signed event. That cannot be denied or debated. What is really up for debate is how things should be presented and interpreted. We’ll figure this out eventually, but it’s way better than groveling for approval and rating from a random App Store technician or algorithm.
Trust decision is in the mind of the beholder. I can assume if it’s the zapstore it’s reputable, the followers just show how well known they are in the community. An extra signal, not an endorsement.
Maybe there is some tooltip thing that states “dyor” “maybe ask around before installing apps. These npubs might have info”
this is what graperank is for
