just put up this prototype of what i call subjective farcaster:

a collection of cached endpoints which can be used to calculate the number of likes on a cast or the number of followers of a user filtered based on 2 degrees of separation from the viewer's social graph i.e. only counting interactions from the viewer's follows or the follows of the viewer's follows

would like to turn this into a cast action but it's really slow

hosting an instance of the api at https://subjective-farcaster.steer.fun

cypherpunk wannabe, engineer working on @frames /open-frames /opencast

Would be also the 2nd call slow? As I understood than at least the links are cached for a day?!

Is it possible to run it in an own named thread, if it not finished just ping a message (to also avoid timeout errors), like: still collecting… try again or so. And then (if you have a unique thread name,e.g. viewerfid-hash) just again waiting up to 3-4 seconds.. I mean I would wait for the outcome, as this is quite interesting 😊

2nd call is decently fast yeah. maybe i should just build it
