#[0] I have finally read your Blazepoint whitepaper. Do you still stand by its ideas and are going to bring them to fruition within Nostr?

If I got it right, the core thing you need there that isn't present in Nostr by default is that you'll have these relays that gather "votes" (reaction events?) from their users and use that to build clusters of interesting content, prioritizing these somehow. The details are not specified.

Is the idea that relays following this method will exclude stuff that is bad-voted voted and keep stuff that is good-voted? Are they supposed to apply some technique to pre-filter content that wasn't already voted based on who created that too?

If there is a relay dedicated to Marlon Brando fans then all posts by Marlon Brando will be scored highly there, but Marlon Brando does not use that relay, he doesn't even know about it, right? Am I into something here?
