On the original note here and the website there is even a video showing how to use it... with nak (that I think you are familiar with)

If you were able to see the video, that is the kind of UX and speed we are after. Not sure that is possible with NIP-85, but we could certainly output to it. It would be great if you could look at the spec (which has an entry for graperank and enough fields to make it work - I think) and start returning responses even if they are precomputed/cached. We need to figure out how to store user preferences for these DVMs, need to look at kind 10040 more closely
Follower count, for instance. Only needs to update when a new follows are added or deleted from the user. Then the replaceable event is updated automatically. No need to request a DVM for it. It's already on the phone
