ok i’ll bite, why blue corn? 

 you should bite the blue corn.
it’s the very best corn. 
twice the protein, twice the flavor.
plus, you can post photos of your growing blue corn, and appear mysterious and knowledgeable about esoteric foods. 
you can also hang it in your house to dry for winter impressing visitors, while boasting of your 1/1024 Cherokee lineage like Elizabeth Warren. 

 how do you explain the blue corn chips taste a bit less tasty than the yellow + white corn ones 

 The fresh to dried conversion is opposite. Blue and purple corn, have much more flavor fresh, but become much more bland when dried. Not sure why. More sugars in the yellow and white? Dunno. But dried blue tortillas taste like cardboard 

 as someone who mostly eats corn in chip form, I’ll probably be sticking to the yellow ones 😂

 Fans - my fans 😒 

 I do like that I can see some of my followers with #damus (thanks Will & team). It's cool to look and see if anyone is posting cool stuff to follow back. I wonder if one day in the future there might be a way to easily find people who follow me that share interests and post somewhat frequently 🤞🤷‍♀️ 

 i feel like i just got told by the captain of the starfleet why we can’t know the population of humans across the galaxy 🌌 🤣 🚀 

 “follow counts are a single planet concept nifty” 

 😆 

 Hahaha 

 How about as an addition to the follower list, the follower also sends a separate note tagged to the followed for notification? 

 Very good point especially for someone coming in new from classic twitter social media. 

 It’s like comparing each others UTXO sets or dick size 

 'Follow counts are a centralized concept'

 Surely this can be improved with a indexed, purpose built relay for follow lists. It doesn't matter what you think of the concept. People still want to know their follow count. It's not a centralized concept to want to gauge your reach.  

 Yes indexers are fine for this, but its hard to make core client features depend on single specialized servers which don’t have a spec. This is just asking for your app to stop working eventually. I try to avoid that as much as I can in damus.

People can also spam contact lists and fake the count (primal shows me as 1 million followers when it’s probably more like 200k), so i’m not sure if it will ever be accurate. I don’t like lying to users. 

 I totally understand that  

 @3xethical one of the best explanations I have found in regard to follower count. 

 Maybe this could be less intensive using Merkel roots? 

 brb putting “getting the guys to actually explain themselves” on my resume 😂
