1. Yeah it's nice 2. If you set up the right ecosystem and incentives, people will post the right content. In my opinion the current structure doesn't help making Farcaster win. Or maybe it does but you have way different vision of winning than I am - happy to learn about it. You can ofc frame my well-meaning critique as whining, but I don't think that helps to build a better product.

As 1) Farcaster built a great crypto experience via in-app wallet + mini-apps. I think it's way better than vanilla crypto UX and chapeau bas for that. 2) Twitter is betting even more on 'get viral or die' feed strategy, so it's way harder to break through for most accounts, even those with decent following. This means that there are people who would like to chat about crypto but can't do it on Twitter. These people might be pretty open to using crypto via Farcaster as they're already crypto-pilled. 3) I think purposely tweaking algo to give more prominence to high-quality crypto related posts would help onboard more people of these people. Ofc I haven't seen your algo and the devil lies in the details. There are probably 100 ways to do it badly and only a few to do it well. But it is possible (picrel) PS: As I responded to deodad https://farcaster.xyz/macbudkowski/0xa7c03cbf

Can you give me examples of excellent crypto posts that haven't gotten engagement?

This is the thing - I don't see them in my feed. Here's a quick scroll of my feed. So there are a few options: 1) People stopped writing good crypto takes => why? 2) People write good crypto takes but they are not in my feed => why? 3) People write good crypto takes, they are in my feed, but they are buried way too low => why 4) Some other explanation?

Greetings, friend. If you look at my profile, I talk solely and exclusively about cryptocurrencies, about what I am building with /glanker for example, educational content in @paragraph and in @zora, about trading, DeFi, and my content literally no one sees it, very few people read it, I don't know what you mean by @dwr about excellent cryptocurrency content that has no commitment. You can see my profile. Even so, although practically no one interacts with my cast, I continue to educate and do what I love in web3. But it's not possible that in a decentralized network focused on crypto technology, where the algorithm should help these accounts grow, no matter how cool Bert and a dog are, they are always in the top 10 of the rankings, and it's not just Bert, they are photos from the internet, they are photos that literally have nothing to do with technology, and there they are. The algorithm should work exactly as you describe it. https://farcaster.xyz/lenonmc21
