This post gave me a thought. We're talking about the future being based on an algorithm "marketplace" — that background context along with the notion that this very basic framework for a feed model has been named the "network" model feed makes you start to realize that the future of a decentralized social layer will be structured along the lines of a new kind of knowledge, a whole new vocabulary for technologists to invent and learn: the language of the information discovery algorithms.

We need words. It strikes me that some of this language must already exist in the trenches because the developers must already have named the concepts in order to build and work with them. But now end users ourselves need this jargon, a lingua franca upon which we will construct the new epistemological framework for digital communications.



primal has a concept called "network" - it is all the people you follow + all the people they follow

it's a pretty great starting point for curating your nostr feed - would be a solid default view for a mainstream client imo
