Farcaster

even when i test engagement farming tactics on this app (for science)

they tend not to work as i would expect

i truly don't understand their "algo"

who's got the best insights on how it actually works? (we shouldn't trust Merkle to tell us how it works...for obvious reasons..)

What are your goals?

Aka getting on the leaderboard is different from trying to get a trending cast which is different from getting views/impressions.

i'm making a statement that's anti-algorithm in general. fuck manipulating a content strategy to play into the hands of a wealthy central authority who stands only to profit of of you and all of your hard work. fuck that completely

But which one do you want to optimize for? They require different strategies.

my goal is to understand how it works so i can warn/inform others

The views/impressions piece is the most interesting to me. Would you have guidance on optimizing for that?
