Warpcast spam filtering has improved quite a bit! 

We're turning off priority mode for one week as an experiment. If people are happy, we may get rid of priority mode forever. 

If you see spam, you can help us by tapping the "three dot" menu on the top right of each cast and hitting Report.

Oh snap! Possibly eliminating Priority Mode was not on my BINGO card for July. Rad.

Remember: if you see something, say something. Reports are easier now.

the next few weeks of power badge recipients are going to be gems i think. massive new influx of fresh content is possible now.

metal casting, 3d prints,
AI, robotics and mashups of all of these things.

Shoukd really rethink the PB model imo but yeah more users will be seen 💯

PB holders still too scared to interact with them tho 😞

Thats exactly what i did for a month and a half, I was on here every day posting stuff and replying for hours a day for months and months, I was mainly finding people i wanted to learn from and be friends with..   It took me weeks and weeks and weeks to reach 400 followers.  

Its way easier now.   I know someone that got a powerbadge last week and she has 114 followers.  

If you treat farcaster like instagram or twitter where you fire off posts then run off, you will wither and die here. I hope that never changes.

Imagine joining farcaster and not knowing anyone, then not having any of your interesting posts show up and also not having anyone interact with u because u don't have a PB 🤷

It's a horrible onboarding exp imo

It's great for those that have established connections I enjoy it here with or without a PB but I don't think new users have a good experience rn

i doubt that.  I think its more of a time thing.   there is only so much time in the day i want to spend of FC and that is mostly used catching up with people that i know.   I dont want to necessarily have 5000 friends i want to keep up with.
