e.g. i notice ai posts that ek or k00b comments on get ranked 'hot' more than in other territories

the incentive then is to maximize my own rewards by zapping more ai content isnt it

I really don't know so maybe someone else knows. I don't really care about rewards that much myself so in general I think I get too much rewards compared to people that may write more interesting content. I don't think I have a lot of trust (shouldn't trust me, because don't trust, verify) so my zapping content doesn't really help people.

In the ~AI territory, it's funny to say this, but actually all trust stems from you, you are the source of all trust in ~AI haha

However, trust is territory-specific, so if you don't have much engagement in other territories, you would have very little trust in those territories.

Ah! But I was constructing this against global trust - if there's such a thing? I should really just not be lazy and read the algo.

Oh, you're right I think there is a global trust graph as well, which I'm guessing is used for the main hot and top sorts. Yeah for that it all emanates from @k00b and @ek I think haha. Wasn't entirely clear when weightedVotes is used vs. subWeightedVotes

SimpleStacker's post explaining trust is a great starting point whether you read the algo or not: #916035
