 Who can make an algo like this? Boost people based on % of reactions/follows. 

Would help with content diversity I think 🤔 nostr:note1z8yd4252mmczt088a9jhmxgny9fjmqhq6p8vttzs9fqy7d8295kq834t0c 
 Is content diversity a matter of algos? Are algos made for searching as probing tools, yes? 
Otherwise hire jerry macguires agency for queens, creatives, shitposters and memelords.

Content is there and is very diverse. They just need to connec but they eventually will happen to be connected.

 In due course, in doue course. It will come

 
 Can it DVM?

 In theory yes. The first issue is knowing the follower count of an npub. They are all just aggregated from various relays. Then you need to keep track of these somewhere. 

And then it really depends on the time window you are looking at. The currently popular notes DVM only looks at one hour, which I found to show a wide range of diverse accounts and why i went for it. On a day or longer scale (see primals DVMs, or nostr band) it is true that large accounts make it top trending all the time (naturally, larger audience, more interactions etc).  

But yes, once you collect reliable follower count and store it, you could divide the interactions by that. Then you probably bias in the other direction, because larger accounts also have more "dead followers". Ideally you pick active followers. But we kind of enter a high processing environment doing this for every npub 🙈

That being said, yes if resources are available, it's totally doable.  
 So if one gets a lot of reactions and follows because they talk about bitcoin what then? 😁 The reactions and follows will need to be diverse too. 
 The % of reactions to those peoples follows would not be high. 

Think 200 reactions to 50k followers 

Vs

10 reactions to 500 followers 
 Ah I see 👍🏼 
 You might still surface bitcoin content but chances are skewed toward less or that content I think … could always tweak as needed 
 Yeah it’s a ratio algo. Not a bad idea. 
 Change my mind: The only algo-like list that matters it the one featuring most zapped notes. #v4v

 This eliminates the vast majority of nostr who doesn’t have a wallet 
 Isn't a Nostr account without a wallet, like having a car without driving around? I do not take a Nostr account serious, if they do not have received any zap or did not zap anything. The account is simply not credible enough.
