I've observed a loop where newcomers latch onto welcoming "big" accounts by participating in a growing discourse centered around said accounts like pseudo celebrities which reinforces their mundane posting and makes them more relatable but then newcomers mimic this and instead get punished for "not being interesting" even though they're doing all the right things and big accounts aren't doing anything bad and it's all weird and I forgot to use punctuation and follower counts are bad okay bye

I feel like SNS and video services have sort of done a gradual whittling down of celebrity awe over the years by making these “stars” relatable through private life exposure, whether wilfully or not. I think when details about the life of said celebrities was left to imagination and rumour this sort of elevated the mystery and intrigue about them, with only real coverage about them emerging from their professional works or specialties that have them saod status. Now we have people on the platform who may be in this celebrity status doing mundane casts like “I eat ice cream for breakfast” and everyone’s like “banger”when it’s just kind of low effort mundane casts but get standing ovations from their inner circle. When people see this success, naturally they want to replicate it and reinforce the feed with mundane casts. Making everything relatable is in a way a watering down of sophistification of the feed.

It’s hard to know how to fit in! I think Farcaster going more video focused may help here as a lane to open. (Saying this as someone not posting many vids).

feel like it's more often the other way around, incumbents latching onto select new accounts in desperate hopes that they'll find farcaster "cool" to validate their/our own time spent here

I won’t speak for others only for myself. Just as you’ve observed this pattern, I’ve noticed it too, and perhaps I’m experiencing something similar. But to this day, I still haven’t figured out what exactly I’m supposed to do about it
