RE: Feedback requested: June 30 release candidate for "Steem Follower Checker" browser extension

The blobs certainly look like they're better distributed so it looks like you've made a significant improvement.

One thing I've just considered - users who have a lot of power get more followers - because they have more power. It's got nothing to do with how good their content is, just that people want to get noticed by them. I don't know how significant this is. Presumably, it's the lower reputation people who feel the need to do this. Something to consider or irrelevant?

Yeah, there are a number of accounts like this. I try to deal with it by imposing a minimum cutoff for median reputation, but that's a somewhat arbitrary decision, and I don't know how to tell whether I'm getting the cutoff anywhere close to right. The overall follower score isn't really meant to be a measure of posting quality, just a measure of how many people are likely to see a post, so I think it generally makes sense to raise the score for a high enough number of low rep accounts (above some minimum).

Let me know if you have any suggestions for how to account for them.
