Right, but I can't think of a better term than popularity to sum it up. adjacency? heh I think @hodlbod implied recursion isn't even in play here so it's nothing beyond friend-of-a-friend?

Right, but I don't think I would call it popularity, since that's independent of your standpoint. It's maybe closer to popularity within friend group, but a better word might be "alignment"

I mean every word so far has been an imperfect descriptor, I wouldn't throw out "popularity" just because it's an imperfect match. "alignment" is probably closer to correct, but it's not very clear to a new user imho. An imperfect understanding of the word "popular" will still lead someone to basically correctly understand the WoT score. "apparent popularity" actually is a near perfect match imho, but it's a bit wordy. "in groupiness" was my first thought after popularity, but I think it's also a bit unclear to your average new user, and it sounds goofy lol

Happy to help you bikeshed the term for the rest of the day instead of doing more important things 😉 😂

Let's go with in-groupiness haha

Last comment on this I swear! What about just calling it a "Score" or "WoT Score" and if the user cares enough to investigate what that is, give them a precise description in a tooltip or something. Otherwise, all the user REALLY needs to know is it's some kind of score, higher is better.

That is in fact exactly what I'm doing lol

😂
