there are too many ppl who cast only to get likes. They’re playing around trying to get likes on low value content. 

I don’t know the solution but I do know this really doesn’t help grow Farcaster. 

I do know in order to thrive Farcaster needs high value content from ppl not connected to the Merkle Team.

One man’s trash is another’s treasure. It’s so subjective.

the bubble around the merkle team & friends generates the most interacted casts with lowest value metrics. 

I have no data to support but I’m sure @geoffgolberg could create some penis charts to agree with it.

High quality casts outside this bubble will determine fate of farcaster. 

Is that the farcaster motto “come find treasure in our trash” ?

I’m going to offend someone w this response but…NPCs

I think it’s more likely it’s a smaller fish bowl here & the chance of getting interaction is higher + there is more of a connection, ppl are more likely to remember ppl who frequently interact w their casts even if low value, is the normie draw which I understand

I’m definitely at a loss. That’s not the content that gets me excited but maybe it’s what normies want.
