 Interesting, I am assuming the client (Damus) here chooses their algorithm? Why do you mean by DVM support?

Yes likewise, everything we do is kept open source + documented for others to replicate.
An example: https://docs.openrank.com/integrations/farcaster/feeds
Which is an alt algo for Farcaster clients to choose.

Looking to learn more about the Nostr community, what’s the best way/who are some folks I should connect with to chat more about things like this? 
 Most clients don't use or have algorithms. Some do.

DVM is a Data Vending Machine. It's kind of like a bot that provides data for a fee, sometimes free. Some of these are used in th form of feed algos and some clients have support for them. 
 Got it
So a bot to curate your feed? 
sounds interesting, gonna read up more on DVM.

Thanks for sharing!

Any particular folks I should connect here that you would recommend?
discovering new users is slightly harder on this app, given my feed is currently only filled with a couple of people. 
 You follow 8 people 😂 you gotta pump those numbers up!

But yeah, nostr:nprofile1qqs04xzt6ldm9qhs0ctw0t58kf4z57umjzmjg6jywu0seadwtqqc75spzpmhxue69uhnzdps9enrw73wd9hszynhwden5te0wp6hyurvv4cxzeewv4eszynhwden5te0wfjkccte9enrw73wd9hsxv8qkt wrote the original spec I believe? nostr:nprofile1qqsfnw64j8y3zesqlpz3qlf3lx6eutmu0cy6rluq96z0r4pa54tu5eqpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qg4waehxw309aex2mrp0yhxgctdw4eju6t09uq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wd4hk6tcdt5dav nostr:nprofile1qqsd5x8fscqypualfyu8dlqkkx539tj6dah634g4ns779wpr8gxes5gpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgnwaehxw309ac82unsd3jhqct89ejhxtcpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduhsn600tr nostr:nprofile1qqsd3gkr8uhzluaf6nlj54vn7026t853vla9mmgx858ynzghwes3urqpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vp39eukz6mfdphkumn99e3k7mgpr3mhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vpj9eukz6mfdphkumn99e3k7mgpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6vpj9ejx7unpveskxar0wfujummjvux9djpu all do DVM work too. 
 yup, I wrote the spec and the first few implementations but the others you tagged are leading the DVM charge now 
 Hey!
Was reading about DVM, f cool stuff!

Can’t wait to explore more innovations like these in the world of Nostr. 
 Yess gonna bring the follower no up!

Thanks for these mentions :)
