The Unwritten Rules of Farcaster (a thread 1/11) 1. Don’t ask for follows—most users ignore or avoid those who do. 2. Engagement matters—treat it as a social network, not just a broadcasting platform. 3. The algorithm prioritizes engagement—interact with content you like to train your feed. 4. Give likes freely to support content you enjoy. 5. Reply thoughtfully—generic responses don’t add value and may be ignored. 6. Tag people with purpose—avoid tagging non-followers without a good reason. 7. Use channels to connect—they’re a safe space for engaging beyond your followers. 8. If you’re being ignored, check your spam label—many won’t see your replies if you’re at Level 0 or 1. 9. Rules are looser with friends—banter freely, but remember relationships take time to build. 10. Farcaster is a unique, close-knit community—engage authentically, be patient, and you’ll find your place.

(2/11) 1. Don’t ask for follows. People don’t like that. Most casters ignore anyone with F4F or anything like that in their profile. Some of this behavior stems from many moons ago when you needed 200/400 followers to get an “Active Badge” and then a good ratio to get a Power Badge. Many airdrop farmers flooded the network with F4F posts that were nothing but spam in the hopes of being eligible for airdrops. This soured most of the network on F4F. You may be new and tempted to join in on these chains, but it will be detrimental to your experience here. Who you follow matters and by following people you give them power and your own reputation. Choose who you follow wisely.

(3/11) 2. It’s a social network, not social media. Broadcast only doesn’t work well here. People want to chat so make your posts easy to comment on and engage with. Ask @warpee.eth about the difference and why it’s important.

(4/11) 3. The home feed algorithm is shaped by engagement. If you want to see more of something in your feed, interact with it. If you scroll by and don’t interact, the algorithm assumes you don’t like it and will stop showing it to you. It’s why you probably see the same people over and over in your home feed and not others. Teach it what you like. Use the following tab and scroll channels to broaden your content. Smash the like button

(5/11) 4. Give your likes generously to content you enjoy. Don’t hold back. Technically you pay for likes via storage. Don’t worry about it. No one cares if you run out of them and the hubs delete your likes from 6 months ago. Now matters most. Don’t buy more storage just to like either.

(6/11) 5. Reply thoughtfully. When someone is looking through their notifications, will they know what post you are replying to? Generic “gm”, “LFG”, “<emoji>, etc. doesn’t resonate here and will probably be ignored by people who aren’t your friends (feel free to emoji bomb your friends).

Always wondered how that worked. A lot is said about old casts getting deleted, but nobody said anything about what I should do with the likes. Always worried about it and bought space just for likes. Now I finally know that they just get deleted!
