Nostr Web Client

I can understand users asked for "number of followed and following accounts".

I think, I will keep the option "number of followed and following accounts" disabled. The idea to hide such information sounds strange for social media. But at the end of the day it's just a tool which can be used to influence people. Such kind of "feature" could end in comparison, maybe envy or estimation just based on a number.

To keep it disabled as default sounds social 😉

Thanks for the release.

I agree absolutely. I've always been adamant on this: I consider the comparison of followers a source of misery and sadness, like some kind of toxic popularity contest. This feature was added to commercial social media software as a way of getting users engaged forever so that they never leave and keep creating free content for them.

But, I see great people using #snac and asking for this, and who am I to be that stubborn.

It will always be disabled by default, though.
