curious how mazm has only now got onto top3. unless he’s changed his content that gets more engagement. otherwise mazm would have always been top. also curious how journos are now the top. 

is there some kind of seasonal favoritism in the algo of this bitch, if so big yikes.

Nothing nefarious taking place 

The algorithm simply takes into consideration number of followers

Seems to be happening with new accounts in general if they have any activity but usually works itself out by Tuesday. Will have to wait & see

no doubt those guys cast bangers.  shouldn’t need a shadow boost (we don’t know yet if this is what’s happening) to get on top. this seems like a tech issue

a lot of newbies or newly active — getting that new kid attention which is great for those we want to stick around imo

ah yes the free market of rewards algorithms

always hated that shit about warpcast, can’t daniel let the free market decide which content is best

bro came into my comments and started the fud

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

The algo favors "lots of activity with fewer follows" so with Dan and others promoting them, and people frequently not following but interacting, it makes sense that the algo would show them high on the leaderboard
