What if we replaced follower counts with some other addictive metric in Nostr clients -- but one that was specific to Nostr and could actually work reliably and not be gamed?

(No, I am not talking about zaps, these can also be gamed, and this is not a trivia question, I don't have any answers.)

What if it was # of people I follow that follow you?

"46 Friends following"

Echo chamber network is the name

There's a lot of value in echo chambers but that phrase only has a negative connotation. As an example, I can immediately have a different conversation with bitcoiners than I can with my neighbors.

Knowing the extent of the echo chamber is a lot more useful than the current "followers" number
