I've got a long highlighter post coming about this reworked for the Nostr context, but this is a similar system I had designed and worked on for a different context: the urbit peer-to-peer-peer network:

Centralized Corporate algorithms Bad.
Personal algorithms GOOD
Looks similar to what nostr:npub1u5njm6g5h5cpw4wy8xugu62e5s7f6fnysv0sj0z3a8rengt2zqhsxrldq3 is working on
From a quick overview, very similar! Including trust attestations being contextual. And weighted. And reputational scores are not universal, but need to be calculated from the perspective of each user. And the calculations are where things get really interesting. 🔥
I wonder if we’re calculating scores in a similar manner.
