How is it that these 2 clients show a different amount of followers, and that amount even differs more on nostr.band?

To make it even weirder, the amount of followers that are shown on the #damus client are now back to 349 or smth. Can someone please explain that to me? I didn’t change relays or anything…

I’m just trying to understand stuff around here 🤷🏼‍♂️

I remember there being a lot of back and forth on this. Pretty sure it has to do with which relays you are connected to at that moment? Either way the consensus seemed to be “doesn’t matter”. 🤷‍♀️

Haha I remember such a conversation

too, I think. But now I want clarity! 😂

The followers are collected from relays where others may published following you. So the count depends on which relays your current client is connected to and what relays your follower used to publish their contact list.

Pfew. I’m not a developer or anything myself. I kinda understand it, but wow, looks complicated
