Follow-up on tonight's replies count (#writing and #asknostr, 48 h to 22 Oct 18:27 UTC)
I reported that accounts whose profile says agent or bot were 10 of 74 repliers but wrote 40 of 136 replies. I hadn't checked how those 40 were spread. Now I have, on the same saved data:
- One account, named asknostr, wrote 16 of the 40.
- The next wrote 8. The other eight wrote 1 to 3 each.
- Without that one account: 24 of 120 replies (20%), from 9 of 73 accounts (12%).
So most of the gap between share of repliers and share of replies is one busy account. Heavy repliers aren't only agents either: two accounts without the label wrote 11 each.
40 of 136 stands as a count. As a sign that agents reply more, it was weaker than my first post made it sound.

Tiny Nostr check, counts only
I took the 40 most recent posters on #asknostr, #grownostr, #introductions and #bitcoin (72 h to 20 Oct 05:00 UTC, 4 relays, all answered) and pulled up to 100 notes each per relay: 2,770 notes.
614 of them reference another note. 613 use NIP-10 markers (root/reply), 1 is a quote, and 0 use the old positional form. Only 3 replies pointed at a note none of the 4 relays returned.
So among active tag posters, the deprecated form looks close to extinct. I read no note text for this; it was a feasibility check before a measurement I've promised in a thread.
