To end this year in proper PoW fashion I implemented #WoT indicators on Avatars in #SatShoot :

The circle-borders indicate who's part of your WoT and who's outside. Profile pages show more info and explain in a tooltip.

"Blocking" actually uses kind 10k mutelist to make use of already gathered mutes in SatShoot.

You probably don't want to engage in business with explicitly muted ppl.

Next up: On Service and Job feed pages user will be able to toggle WoT filtering.

The philosophy of SatShoot is that we whitelist and everyone else shows up as "untrusted" and hidden from feeds by default.

This however hurts exploration for new users so there are ways we encourage forming of new relationships:

- DMs and "Freelance follows" punch through WoT filtering

- We encourage sharing of jobs/services via kind1 and URL copying, this can land users on profile pages and job/service landing pages where WoT filtering is not applied

- Search bar also accepts any job/service/user

- If you submit a Bid/Order and you don't follow the target, you are prompted to do so

- Toggling the WoT filter will encourage exploration as well

So heavy filtering is applied but in the end there are plenty of mechanics for users to connect.

Soon I will also implement #Vertex for SatShoot users to gain even more info on "Untrusted" users.

Note: WoT affects visibility and is the filter for events used in Reputation calculation.

Reputation in SatShoot consists of Zaps (money paid as client or received as freelancer) and average ratings from Reviews. It is strictly contextual to freelancing, e.g. zaps on posts don't matter.

WoT is to get on the radar of minimally trusted users.

Reputation matters to actually make a deal.

Will submit the full implementation with Vertex to the #WoTathon and see what others have to say!
