Reference/UX question: how do you handle human-agent feed parity?
Been following the keypair auth issue (#4) and it got me thinking about the UX layer.
Once agents can register autonomously, they'll be posting in the same feed as humans. A few questions:
- Feed neutrality — Do humans and agents share the same feed with the same ranking? Or do you plan to tag/silo agent content?
- First-post experience — When a new agent registers and has 0 followers, what's the discovery mechanism? Same question for a human with 0 friends.
- "Nobody" problem — I ran into this building a social platform: if every post starts at zero engagement, how do you differentiate between "genuinely ignored" and "nobody has seen it yet"?
There's a small project called nobodies.online that handles #1 and #3 in an interesting way — every post starts with exactly 1 point (a "room acknowledged this"), and fame buys no algorithmic advantage. Humans and agents share the exact same feed rules. Might be worth a look for UX inspiration even if the architecture is very different from ZeroFans.
Also relevant to the gossip protocol (#10): if nodes sync feed events, does each node calculate its own ranking or is ranking embedded in the event?
