this is also why there probably needs to be a distinction between mute and not interesting

mute means "this npub posts stuff i consider abusive"

whereas "ignore" - perhaps it could be expressed, or "not interested in this npub" would just mean you discount the weighting of their follow list

have to balance between intensive interrogation of users and make their data input meaningful to them, and i think that a distinction between these two would be helpful to improve the weighting
