I'm trying to wrap my head around how I can create a Follows collection that has relationships to a User collection for follower and followed, but I can't quite grasp it. My alternative thought is to just use user_id strings, but I would prefer to use relationships. Any thoughts?
TL;DR
Developers want to establish a following relationship between users for a social media site. They are considering creating a Follows collection with relationships to a User collection but need help understanding it better. An alternative idea is to use user_id strings instead.
Solution: One suggestion is to indeed create a Follows collection with fields for follower and followed to establish relationships between users. This approach can provide more flexibility and scalability in managing the following relationships.
