Regarding Follows you might enjoy this thread: nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzplfq3m5v3u5r0q9f255fdeyz8nyac6lagssx8zy4wugxjs8ajf7pqqszfm9mvw25s2s720slcx389sw4ylamnl4j6zk2mdm9qsdx2wlyvqqf8hm6t

Regarding Zaps I agree with you. That's why I'm designing for Zaps to be more than just Tips. 
IF
1. Creators can reply to them 
2. Zappers can see their zap amount in context
THEN 
We can see some kind of market pricing form around what amounts/comments are going to get you recognition/attention/reputation ... 

 Nice, thank you for sharing!

@Silberengel do we have a proposal somewhere for non-discrete relationship declaration? I’m missing the numerics in nostr. It would be cool if we could do calculations with events instead of sticking to categories.

For example I’d like to think a bit more about npub “location” and “distance”. May something to be tried out with a spatial database such as postgis.

Facebook has graphs, but does anyone have a spatial database underlying its social network? 

 Well, we have the NKBIP-02 for vector embeddings, that @liminal wrote. 

 Where can I find it? Not here: https://github.com/limina1/NKBIPs 

 relationship_status: [embedding float32 x 768] is the new "it's complicated"
