RE: Curating for Value: How "Follower Network Strength" Improves Steem Post Ranking

in Suggestions Club6 months ago (edited)

Just installed the extension in my browser and checked my follower strength.

average the number of followers into a time-based average over the life of the account (i.e. new followers per day, new followers per week, new followers per month, etc.).

I'm sorry if I didn't get it right...Do you mean the network strength should be calculated in specified time stamps? Like event-horizon's follower network strength in July 2022 or from Jan 2021 to Sep 2021?

I do have a lot of inactive followers and so does any user who joined years later than me. People keep joining and quitting all the time so if we are to check the overall network strength then shouldn't only active followers be factored in even while calculating the time-averaged follower count?

(If there's absolutely no activity for over 3 months then the follower/user should be rendered inactive.)

These are just my initial thoughts. I'm sure you already considered everything, so my apologies if I sound too naive.

Edited to add:

It just occured to me that you weren't talking about network strength in a specififed time. Instead, the rate at which a user gain new followers in different time frames, right?

Here are my results 🤔:

Does this mean I have more inactive followers than you?

I think this only means you have less followers. I joined earlier so obviously I have more followers and probably much more inactive followers than you.

In the current version of this extension, remlaps hasn't taken inactive followers into account. He's working on it. Once updated, your network strength would be more, in my opinion.

This is correct. The current version only looks at total number of followers. The next version will average the follower count over the age of the account in order to get a (very) rough estimate for the declining influence of inactive followers. (Actually counting the inactive followers would involve too much network activity, so for now an estimate is the best I can do.)

It just occured to me that you weren't talking about network strength in a specififed time. Instead, the rate at which a user gain new followers in different time frames, right?

Yes, I think that's right. Basically, I'll be scoring it based on "new followers per month" on one axis, and "median follower reputation" on the other.

cc: @o1eh, FYI

Here's an example with my account, though the June 30 version will continue to change during the next month:

Ahh... right. Thank you for explaining. Looking forward to the new version.
