in the spirit of dead-internet theory, it is probably best to kill the idea of like and follower counts on nostr. zap-count isn’t really safe either, but it’s still definitely worth having zaps.

What if we replaced follower counts with some other addictive metric in Nostr clients -- but one that was specific to Nostr and could actually work reliably and not be gamed?

(No, I am not talking about zaps, these can also be gamed, and this is not a trivia question, I don't have any answers.)
