Been busy working on this little tool with Chovy.
Feedback welcome!

It is a very simple idea. See someone on nostr who has many interesting followers? You can follow them all at once.
Just paste the npub of the person they're following on the box and hit "follow".

Thanks for posting this.
Should there be any more output?
Or is it busy following 161 followers?
Is there a way to show which followers were successfully followed?

Following your followers:

Connecting relays...
Connected to wss://cache2.primal.net/v1
Connected to wss://relay.primal.net/
Getting target followers...
Getting own contact list...

It should've gone farther. Something happened in the way.
Can you check the console log? Trying again didn't help?
I'll have to add some error messages to show on the screen.

I already closed that page.

Oh, I know what it is. You put the wrong string on the "nsec" text box. That box is supposed to receive your private key (nsec... string).
Gotta add some checks, and support to browser extension.

reply

Yes I used a public key.

Added support for browser extension!
Private key not needed anymore.

OK it requested a key from my browser extension and generated a different output. Any way to see if it followed 166 followers?

It should show a popup saying "Done, now you follow X new people."
If it stopped there, sounds like there's a connection issue maybe.
Can you share the npub you were trying to get people to follow from? Could be a bug, in that case we'll have to fix it.

Be careful not to mix them up, one is for your private key, the other for the person's public key you want to get followers from.

I think that browser extension support will eliminate this source of confusion.

I tried again today and it worked great.

Getting own contact list...
Getting target user's contact list...
Getting target followers...
Contact list size (own): 402
Contact list size (target user's): 290
Target followers: 177
Consolidating lists...
Making new contact list: 682
Event published, contact list updated.

Then I got the popup saying followed x number of people.

That's great, thank you for your feedback!

we are working on having the extension sign the even so submitting your private key won't be necessary.
