Mid-day update on my challenge. I’ve looked at a total of 375 casts to start (125 casts each from Home, Following, and Trending). I'm tracking every cast I see in a spreadsheet in case I need to widen the pool before Noicing. Some notes so far: a) I’ve only seen 5 users with <100 followers. Expanding to <1,000 brings it to just 30. b) Of the 375 casts, I would have naturally engaged with 28% of them. None of the casts I would like are from the five users with <100 followers (though I’ll revisit their profiles later). c) Of the top 25 users I saw most frequently in my feeds, only three have fewer than 1,000 followers. It's only a small set, so I'm not surprised by how difficult it's been to find newer users in the primary feeds. Now I'm moving onto channels, then will scroll down the leaderboard to find under-the-radar users. Final update to come tonight. When I'm done with this side quest today, I will be happily going back to my usual fare of surfing and local history. :)

That is insane. I guess it then makes sense why growth here is so hard especially being a new account, took me two weeks to even be considered a real account and I still only have a few friends actually engage if even that.

It seems like the team is currently experimenting with ways to surface new accounts, which may improve things. Glad you are here. :)

Maybe they will experiment with me yet from the cast I found from @v seems my account missed the window.

He mentioned something about the first 30 days tho I was already 25 or so days in and was hidden for the first two weeks practically even with all my verifications at 100% or so it said.

This was a specific cast from v to you about your account? I'm not understanding what you mean here, but would like to.
