I like the idea of this but your web of trust won’t be enough for even a fraction of things you’d want referrals for. You’ll always need to rely on some other referral source much larger than your web of trust. And I don’t think this is necessarily bad. For example, when I want to buy a video card or a processor that is not THE top of the line - I’ll go to places like Tom’s Hardware Guide and check their benchmark charts. If I had to rely on my web of trust alone, I would never get the answers I’m after. This requires a dedicated team to test tens or hundreds of CPUs and GPUs. And that’s just one example.

BUT, if nostr became the place of conversations of a huge scale, it could be used as such a referral place - maybe not in my example, but in many other every day items. Reddit more or less currently fills the gap - despite being heavily manipulated by companies.
