Just gonna repeat this until someone with the skills does it:
Build into a client the ability to follow a list of the most prolific 10K, 5K, or 2K posters (figure out the right number) for the past day, week, month, whatever, minus the spam of course. Could even set it to eliminate 'GM” as counting toward actual posts. Even better have the abilityof the user to toggle off the avatar/name of the poster if he prefers.
Now, I’m reading only those who have PROOF OF WORK, not PROOF OF STAKE.
The result would be everyone who is doing the work would get followed with a much higher chance of their posts getting seen.
The second-order effect would be CURATION. It would be MUCH easier for someone (or a group) with the time to be on nostr constantly to highlight and re-post the 50-100 best ones every day. That curator would get a lot of followers and would be boosting quality posts.
Other curators would emerge. New npubs would get instant engagement for posting quality because they would get into the golden 2000 or 5000 or whatever.
The ecosystem would grow rapidly due to quality.
I will keep posting this until someone sees it.

quoting note1epl…2janNostr has destroyed the reward for effort expended by content creators, by focusing on following.
Following is self-perpetuating and only reflects _past effort_. It's a branding system, but worse than traditional social media because it's an ossified market. Nobody has to work to maintain the position of their brand, on here.
There's too little competition. Too little capitalism. Too little effort.
