The Week in Review (a thread) ➼ Follower numbers going crazy, down by a lot ➼ Rewards leaderboard scores are weird (probably points being removed because people are marked as spam) ➼ Overall engagement is down/strange ➼ Much confusion and people feel down on themselves and are taking it personally. Don’t. It’s not you.

Your follower counts are going down because the spam algorithm is drunk or extra salty this week. When someone gets labeled as spammy, aka a “0” label, the Farcaster client no longer counts them in your follower count. They are still following you and you can see it on the protocol. Use this frame to see how many have been purged. https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/lb-nemJj8mJO/followers

The spam data set hasn’t been updated in 10 days. We used to get an update every week on Thursday evenings. That cadence has been inconsistent since the beginning of May. Any frames that show your spam label are 10 days out of the date. The spam algorithm runs daily and people are re-labeled. But until the json file gets updated, we can’t see your true status. We are just guessing. If you are in “show more replies” inside of a channel, you might not have a spam label. The channel might be set to prioritize members replies. If you comment on a naked cast aka one that’s not in a channel and you are in “show more replies” you probably have a spam label. https://farcaster.xyz/miniapps/lZVLOEt4ahvs/labels

So if it says 100+ following but only 80+ purge followers that mean 20+ of them have been classed as spam or 80+ of them 👀😂
