I often wonder about the actual context of discussions around "the algorithm". Do I want an algorithm that is better at...

A. showing me the best content?
B. getting me the widest distribution?

It's such a difficult discussion to have in public, because 

1. No one in the 1% that creates content is ready to accept these two directions may be conflicting, ie. that my content is not that great.

2. The typical 90% that is mostly reading/liking is obviously in favor of A, but they are (by definition) not vocal.

3. Even between the 1-10% of users who post content, some are interested in writing (they want to share, and usually they only care about a few, specific, users reading them, their circle) and those who are interested in getting read (they will create based on what gets them attention).

Good luck to anyone trying to reconcile all these in a public discourse.

When you're casting: give me the widest distribution!

When you're scrolling: show me only the stuff I want to see

I'm going to be honest I'm dying to see people I don't follow in my home feed! Specifically things being recasted by people I follow. Expected behavior is more like Twitter I think in that regard

art, music, bikes, friends.
/cryptoart /muse /mxjxn 
$mxjxn 
linktr.ee/mxjxn Crypto since 2014. Farcaster OG. Weirdo forever 🙏

I would like this behaviour as well.  Recast for discovery of new users and channels.

It’s probably not going to move the needle enough for new users, though.
