So pumped to introduce Realtr, our shot at decentralized trust and Web of Trust.

Trust is not an absolute quantity but a deeply personal and contextual phenomenon.

Discover more about it at https://relatr.xyz.

We are currently running a public instance, which is the default on the site. With it, you can search for and calculate trust for given public keys. Still in the early stages, but it's currently quite solid. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and building this together!

I'm interested to see what goes into the Reciprocity score. Is it essentially mutual follows?

Yes, just that. We are experimenting with the validators. Do you think that is a meaningful metric?

I like mutual follows as a metric. I think it's one of the more important ones when you're looking at a static graph of users following users, which I'm assuming you have in some form but you can correct me if I'm wrong.

But I was wondering why it was 1.0, rather than something smaller because not all my follows/followers are mutual. And is the metric outgoing mutual (mutual follows / who I'm following) or incoming mutual (mutual follows / who's following me)? Maybe both could have some use, because "reciprocity" is a broad term.
