Let's update the 'Crash Course' in better engagement, leaderboard rewards, & finding your place on FC--a topic that hasn't gotten a lot of new material recently, but I have a couple to add & the others are timeless.
Share these with new people & those trying to find their way on FC

The Unwritten Rules of Farcaster (a thread 1/11)
1. Don’t ask for follows—most users ignore or avoid those who do.
2. Engagement matters—treat it as a social network, not just a broadcasting platform.
3. The algorithm prioritizes engagement—interact with content you like to train your feed.
4. Give likes freely to su

It might be a bit of an obscure market for Polymarket, but there really should be a prediction market on how long it will take for me to recover & correctly use the bookmark action without hitting 'ask neynar' first.
I have a feeling I'm in the upper tier of using Farcaster bookmarks, and putting 'ask neynar' in the ...

While things have slowed down here of Farcaster, I find myself checking the Word A Day mini app with alacrity at 8 PM EST every day.
And I've noticed I'm not alone. I saw a cast yesterday with someone saying they were frustrated that Daylight Savings delayed the release of the new word by 1 hour. That's the kind of e...

@breadmilkbutter ... your boy did great! He's moving on! Were you pictured in the intro when they showed the family photos?
Awesome guy to root for on American Idol folks.

29 Seconds of Farcaster ... What did you miss this weekend?
Not a whole lot to be honest, but a couple things of note:
* Nice to see all the expressed appreciation for the women of Farcaster on International Women's Day, yesterday. You all make this place extra special 💐
* BRACKY is officially shut down and done,...

I spent a bit too long this evening thinking about how to use the word ameliorate in a cast.
I didn't want to fall into the trap of using such a formal word in a casual setting--talking about ameliorating the effects of the crypto bear market or falling coin prices.
I didn't want to fall into the trap of writing a ...

gm to everyone, but especially all the wonderful women of Farcaster.
we appreciate you every day, but this is the one we are reminded to say it on International Women's Day.
You all make Farcaster far better than it would be without you. 💜
I'd like to list all of you, but you know who you are.

It's nice to see @jacy atop the leaderboard, as she writes the most natural and organic casts for Word of the Day.
But I would be remiss if I didn't mention that she also benefitted from a fortuitous break in @bertwurst.eth going on a road trip and not getting an entry in today.

An overlooked trait of @bracky was his handling of chaos
A market opens with a flurry of requests
@sgniwder asking for updates in yet another commentator's voice
A pivotal moment where everyone sells one & buys the other
@bertwurst.eth holding another bot roundtable
Endless price requests before in-app pricing
100s of...

How can any of us expect to relegate Bert to a new position on the Word A Day leaderboard if he is going to keep coming up with mesmerizing narratives like this every day?
Assistant #1 sighed a lot today.
I guess, from her perspective, I urgently asked to go outside, ran into the yard and stood there quietly for several minutes, and then came back inside.
Later I insisted on sitting on her lap but left almost immediately.
At one point I also excitedly carried my toy into the hallway a

My favorites for yesterday's Word of the Day were @bertwurst.eth and @jacy and they were #1 and #3 on the leaderboard. 🎉 🎈
But I must say a mere 11/15 for my use of prolific seems comparatively arbitrary and capricious .
