Yes, you have to make sure that your follows only follow Approved Npubs, otherwise, you see the unapproved ones in your own feed.
And your follows need to Follow Back, otherwise they're considered rude because they don't contribute to your WoT (even if they regularly interact with you and boost/quote your stuff).
And npubs with no follows are increasingly being blocked, whereas spammers follow everyone back, so client devs give new npubs auto-follows, to keep new arrivals from getting auto-blocked and nagged and gossipped-about. So, now, the biggest npubs have bloated follower counts, full of spam and lurkers, and dead keys.
And npubs try to follow as many npubs as they can, like Good Little Bunnies, even though they never interact with 99.99% of them, whereas my npubs get blocked for being antisocial. Even though I'm easily the most-interactive and engaging npub on here, and have been for nearly 2 years.
Whole thing is fucked up and bullshit.
Speaking of which, GM Europe and Africa, and welcome to Summer Time.
We'd be the customer. We'd make Realy a public-facing mirror to theforest.nostr1.com and theforest.nfdb.com (or whatever domain Semi bought). And could make another mirror for the git server relay.
We already have strfry, you see. We specifically wanted something very different. We're going to have fallback plans. You should need to hit mutliple different relays on multiple different machines in mutliple different countries, manned by mutliple different admins, as our potential attack vector is the nation state. We're paranoid as heck.
Our current plan is to just hardwire it to the uploader and then use theforest AUTH to sign into the uploading web page, but we could then AUTH to Realy, directly, and then our subscribers could access services over HTTP and whatever else nifty you build.
We don't need it, yet, tho. It'll be at least 6 months, before we release anything using it. We can all just ruminate on it, a bit. Our ideas tend to get better, over time.
