Do you think that the interests of active participants in Farcaster (from MM and Neynar, to miniapp devs, to plain users) are aligned?

I think that it is very possible in one or two years, some of us may think that we have succeeded and others that we have failed, all at the same time.

For many apps yes,  but some are asking their users to share again and again and again and giving incentives to do so and it just hurts new people. 

Aka misaligned incentives.

regardless of spam algo - anything that actually goes viral does not do so my mass tagging others, it does so because it's novel enough experience that users can't resist sharing it

Mini App devs need their content to go viral with sharing and many use mass tagging and automated share messages and incentivize new users to share. Some even give you “points” to do so. 

And then the spam algo comes for all the new people who fall into this trap. Vicious cycle.
