Cool, so what you are saying is that each user would have 2 channels a
'Messages' channel and a 'Relationship' channel? In terms of scale there
wouldn't be an issue if say you had 100k users which would mean 200k
channels?
I am a little confused about this sentence you wrote.
*(I’m separating the two kinds of channels so that following someone
doesn’t automatically show you who they’re following or being followed by.)*
Did you mean to say that by following someone they don't automatically see
your messages? If as you said the sync function is adding {“user”: “A”,
follows: “B”} to both A and B's 'relationship' channel. Wouldn't they be
able to see who followers them etc but if you only grant B access to A's
'message' channel, B would only see A's messages and A wouldn't see B's
messages?
Thanks
Joel
