I’m more interested in telling you how I feel about the difference between blue and yellow corn, and why I prefer txt interfaces. 🙂

Counting follows is counting the number of contact lists you are on. Contact lists are large so relays will only allow you to pull so many at a time. To know how many people follow you is knowing every up to date contact list on every relay. Clients can’t really pull all of this information down, so depending which relays you are counting from you will get different numbers, but it will always be inaccurate. Follow counts are a centralized concept.

I am glad you pushed these guys to answer the question! Haha. I think I finally get it now

Which is a good thing 😉 Also we don't see any spam bots and ads in the replies as well. If you wrote on X 1/4 of the replies are from spam bots which have profile photo of Asian girls with rich meals and rich life style, 1/4 ads, 1/4 complaining about the issue you mentioned and 1/4 crucifying you. And regarding this the follower count on X doesn't mean anything as well.

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

😆

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.
