TrustGraph integration about mewsfeed HOT 10 OPEN

Thanks @mattyg for writing this up! Great summary.

from mewsfeed.

I like it. Anything helpful we can contribute, or just an FYI?

Thanks for asking @bierlingm -- feedback and ideas or concerns welcome at this stage.

I also made a more tightly scoped description of the initial PR here: #104

from mewsfeed.

We decided to remove the native "follow" feature entirely and instead just use trust graph for follows.

• If you're not following somebody, the UX in their Agent Profile Popup will be the same as before: just a single follow button.
• If you are following them, the UX in their Agent Profile Popup will show the list of topics and trust weights (if specified).
• By default, a "follow" creates a trustatom for the "catchall other" topic at 50% trust

Some more thoughts from our meeting today about trust graph UX:

• We shouldn't have to type in the tag we wish to follow someone on manually. Even with typeahead search this is an odd clunky interface.
• Display a tag cloud of hashtags / cashtags used in agent's mews
• User can adjust the trust weight slider for tags within the tag cloud UX

I definitely understand if this doesn't happen in the first pass of trustgraph integration, but if so let's make another ticket for it.

doesn't it only go to 7 degrees of separation haha

love the idea of word clouds.. I think its good to create a matrix of tags for each "topic" instead of trying to find an umbrella term, so that topics dont converge on a single idea but allow for multiple meanings linked to components of concepts/categories

@mattyg FYI we're treating the “description” field as a bit of a wiki to ideate on the features and implementation details.

@jost-s and I did a pass on design and implementation of relevant features -- notes integrated into Description field above.

Another idea from our meeting today:

• ability to adjust your trust weight for an agent directly from a Mew they published -- perhaps in the agent profile popup

from mewsfeed.

Reflection from meeting today:

• Trust weight should be very coarse -- i.e. "none" (0%), "partial" (50%), "full" (100%) -- making it too granular (i.e. 0-100% slider) feels unnatural for how we think
