WoT Relay v0.1.16: Retard List The latest version of WoT Relay introduces a new .env variable called `IGNORE_FOLLOWS_LIST` You can input a comma delimited list of pubkeys who are too dumb to be trusted, and the relay will ignore their follows when building the web of trust graph. But since you still love them, they can still post to the relay. I have already added several retards to my list on wss://wot.utxo.one You can upgrade to the latest now

Nice. Could there also be a way to automate this or do it by tightening down the WoT threshold? Anyone who’s only followed by X number of people you follow you ignore their follow list. That way it might cut out n00bs too ignorant to understand who not to follow.

Does the WoT relay have a full-on blacklist anywhere, so you can exclude a particular amount who somehow made it into the WoT from posting to the relay? Or is that 100% handled by building the WoT as a whitelist, and the only way to exclude someone from posting is figure out who is following them and add them to the "retard" list?

It's possible the person doing it is among the followers of one of these bots since people will often follow their own bots. They may unfollow later to cover tracks but the event is still there.

Looks like a good client to use for accomplishing this is #Coracle. When you look up an npub and pop over to their followers list, Coracle displays folks you are following at the top of the list.
