Open Ranking is a huge improvement over WoT DVMs. I never implemented DVMs because they never made sense to me. But Open Ranking is simple, easy to understand, easy to implement. It’s a good complement to NIP-85 Trusted Assertions. I’m looking forward to seeing it evolve as people use it and contribute ideas.
note: currently implemented only on Brainstorm’s staging instance, not yet on the production instance.
