 Not only for onboarding, but also for delving while being an experienced Nostrich. I like how texts' highlights in highlighter can be filtered by follows and network (follows of follows) . If I am a physicist (for example) and I'm trying to gain insights into a text, I can follow an authority in the subject and then see the highlights of their follows.
