i have a very controversial thing to say, and i have typed it down in my note, idk if to cast it or keep it…

Leaderboard…
there’s a certain obsession with the leaderboard that i’ve come to find weird
people aren’t being genuine with their contents anymore
a lot of people now use stolen images
a lot of people now have engagement farms, just to make it to the leaderboard
some people tag each and every “OG” just so their casts get boosted so they can rank higher
some people create so many alts/burners just to farm as much as they can 
i miss the originality that used to be on farcaster
people complain about how their points aren’t moving, and i realized i never even know if mine moves or not, and that’s cause i don’t check the leaderboard that much to “monitor” my points 
i once did an experiment on how much casting an average person has to do to be placed high on the leaderboard, and it was a lot! 
isn’t this tiring? having to post almost each and every other minute just to rank up? when do you then touch grass or be in touch with reality?
i don’t want to use the word hate, but i have a strong disliking for how engagement obsessed people now are cause of the leaderboard 
i don’t hate the leaderboard, i just hate how it has made people behave
