When you wonder why some particular npub suddenly and inexplicably completely hates your guts and follows you around, ranting at you, for hours, over the course of days, telling anyone willing to listen, that you can't code and are a clueless idiot and need to show the Important People more respect, and any criticism you voice is completely unfounded...

And then you see that Primal has put them on the Official Recommendation List.

Follow lists are the solution to the problem of finding some particular subset of items (in this case, npubs) within a very large set. A set the size of "all Twitter users" or "all Instagram users", for example.

They are a solution to a problem we do not have.

Our problem is the opposite:

We have lots of disparate data sets and need to find particular items somewhere in them.
