I should clarify: I'm genuinely excited to see people start to use PageRank in various applications, like zapstore. PageRank is simple but powerful. Many nostriches may not remember, but PageRank changed the world in 1998 with google search. It was transformative. Magic. And nostr can put some of that magic to great use.
My goal is to stimulate conversation around the algos themselves. PageRank is not the only centrality algo out there. And freedom tech != google. What precisely is it that we want to measure? Popularity is the siren song. Nostr recommendation engines need to be guided by a different purpose.
Quality and merit, not popularity.

PageRank: who’s the most popular
GrapeRank: who’s the most qualified in a given context
These are not the same.

Great overview and intro to strfry by its creator @npub1yxpr...qud4 🔥
Includes a nice overview of #negentropy. Which seems pretty awesome although I hear not many people are using it. Why would that be? I’m considering it as a tool to sync :NostrEvent nodes in my neo4j graph database with one or more relays.

It seems to me that one way to conceptualize online content is to divide it into durable vs ephemeral. Not completely isolated categories; more like two ends of a spectrum.
Nostr, as well as legacy social media like Twitter, are concerned primarily with ephemeral content. You’re on social media bc you want to have conversations with other users. Which means you’re a lot more interested in content that is new than content that is old. Which is why nostr feeds tend to be displayed in reverse chronological order.
But content that is “durable” is content that doesn’t automatically lose its value just because it’s aged. When you’re searching for durable content, you don’t want to see the results put in reverse chronological order, you want them sorted using some other metric.
Does nostr have a search engine that sorts results by relevance or importance rather than by age?
As users, what are your biggest pain points when it comes to nostr keyword search?

Takes about 14 seconds for neo4j to run PageRank on 166k pubkeys with 5.8m follow relationships, and requires about 4 MB of memory

Are there any nostr clients that store events on the back end in a graph database? Seems like a lot of data retrieval would be much more performant using a graph database. Retrieving and organizing kind 1 notes in a thread would be just one example.
