we don't block on code reviews to ship something by default. but there are two important nuances to this: 1. post-facto code reviews, where people can give you feedback on improving something after it ships. this is good for more pendatic, stylistic or perf stuff. 2. requested code reviews, where people working on sensitive code know that they should ask for reviews. this happens often when working on security critical stuff.

A few people have pointed out that they have neither an X or a Github. We're making changes to support them: 1. If you're active and earning rewards, you won't have to connect socials. Exact threshold TBD. 2. If you're a brand new user, you can pay to skip connecting socials. 3. We're also going to add more socials and onchain verifications over time to make this easier.

Warpcast Spam labels are improving Our new system uses LLMs to make better decisions. It will make fewer mistakes in both directions and will prevent legitimate users from getting the spam label. We expect fewer users to get the spam label as a result of this change. It may take a few weeks to roll out fully.

Farcaster Verifications are coming soon Verify your account by connecting two socials (X, Phone or GitHub) and holding $25 in your wallet. Verified accounts are less likely to get the spam label and show up higher in the feed, replies and search. They are necessary to earn weekly rewards and qualify for airdrops

airdrops are from apps trying to get users. if someone is consistently not using apps and selling airdrops, i suspect devs will not be excited about sending them tokens, unless there is a compelling reason to be convinced that you won't do it this time.

Would you pay for a "pro" storage unit that gave you: - longer casts (10k chars) - upto 4 images or embeds per cast - profile upgrades (link other socials, banner image etc) For creators, this would help level up their content and profiles. Assume it costs around $10/mo and revenue goes to weekly rewards.
