Yeah I'm not in to that, I'm a free thinker and can decide for my self if I like someones notes or not, don't need anyone to tell me that. Hell some people might not even like my notes doesn't mean they want to unfollow me.

I thought nostr was a place to connect and have civil conversations not create echo chambers 

 Nostr the protocol does not care.
This is client logic and as there are enough clients out there, you can choice whatever you want (that’s the freedom of choice) 

 I'd rather have developers look for a solution on the "replyguy" issue then implementing these bullshit "features".

Just my 2 sats 

 That’s not very constructive, sorry to hear that
