@RedTailHawk I think we should do this eventually.

Introducing Following._ — a simple way to create and share follow packs on Nostr! Finding interesting people to follow has always been one of the biggest challenges for new users on Nostr. Even experienced users often struggle to discover new communities and voices. Following._ makes it easy to curate lists of users and share them with anyone on the web. Whether you're helping newcomers get started or building a niche community, Following._ allows you to grow connections on Nostr. You can create your own follow pack in minutes and share it anywhere. Here’s an example: https://following.space/d/d27a91a4-6155-4089-b4de-377e24dde08d I spent months complaining that someone should build this... and eventually realized that someone had to be me. So here we are. I also leaned heavily on AI during the process — it’s never been easier (or more fun) to create apps for open platforms like Nostr. If you have an idea, you really can just build it. No gatekeepers, no permission needed. Just ship it. Peace https://following.space/ image

Sure. Here is an example. I use this example because it's kind of weird. Maybe some people don't want to be added.

Made a Monero follow pack 👀 In no particular order. Let me know if I missed you (or want to be taken off). I tried keeping it to only accounts that are somewhat active on Nostr (within the last year). https://following.space/d/ygm6vtdp3arx?p=af740d198babb8c7b82d0a4718eb354bb3f6af9a98639b85d4a5cf1371caba85

That's true. You can add anyone you want to a follow pack that you want. Maybe there should be a confirmation from who you're adding? But generally that wouldn't stop anyone outside of this website. I'm pretty sure anyone can create a Nostr list with anyone they want.

Yes, the intention of this tool (now website, but I imagine this will get integrated into nostr apps) is discoverability. People complaining about how only bitcoin bros exist on nostr.
I know this is probably not what you're saying, but for this case I just want to make it clear that I'm not adding random people to that follow pack. I'm adding people that I follow who are obviously Monero dudes, people who use it in addition to Bitcoin, or have shown appreciation for it many times in their history (even if they don't use it themselves). Some that I was unsure of I asked before I added. If I got anyone wrong, or they just don't want to be on it, I'll remove them if they just let me know. But I'm trying to be careful about it.

Yes. When I said it was kind of weird, I was referring to the app. It should be an opt in sort of thing, but I also get the need to bootstrap it.
