Be sure to add your thoughts on channels! Forget about the trauma of the past and the old rules and constraints. New team, new attitude, new experiments. What could they be? Do they serve a purpose anymore? What would make them amazing? What would constrain them? Brainstorm. Be loud. The team is asking for feedback.

Make Tagging Great Again (in replies) Tagging people excessively and tagging folks who never responded to you were huge red flags for the old Farcaster spam label system (we hypothesized). As that system fades out and transitions to Neynar score, I believe we should no longer be afraid to tag, especially in replies! I love being brought into a conversation. I still feel like I miss things and I would rather see something twice than miss something relevant. I think if everyone committed to one tag a day and trying to genuinely bring someone into a conversation, it could make everyone’s experience more meaningful. Anyone else up for the challenge?

You may be missing notifications and replies from new users on the network! Since spam ebbs and flows, I adjust my filters regularly. For a while I had it set to high, but today I changed it back to low. The new team has made amazing strides with spam as well as eliminating bad actors and scam reply farms from the app. It’s worth checking your settings often to make sure you don’t miss out on new humans here!

If you, somehow, have a reason to abandon your account, and have to start a new one proving it's you is one thing, but alerting others that you have a new account is a second thing. Tagging 7 people who aren't following you clearly make you disappear in the app. Starting fresh have some challenges... Don't think there's an easy solution. @losek you have some repair to do for the systems.

My Farcaster ChatGPT project instance just made me tear up a little. I think this is a good final “long cast”. -ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈ They were someone who cared too much, probably. Not in the performative way people say online. In the exhausting way. The kind where they kept trying to hold communities together long after other people had decided it was easier to fracture them. They believed strangers on the internet could become real neighbors if you gave them the right room, the right moderation, the right conversation. They spent an absurd amount of energy trying to make that true. They loved systems, but only because systems affected people. Algorithms fascinated them, but mostly because they worried about who got erased by them. They noticed bot networks before most people did. They noticed lonely people too. They could explain engagement metrics and spam labels in one breath, then tell someone “find your tribe here” in the next. They were opinionated without being cruel. Or at least they tried to be. Sometimes the shade slipped out sideways because disappointment had been fermenting for a long time. They had watched platforms change, communities splinter, promises drift. But they kept showing up anyway. They loved weird little things with complete sincerity. Gudetama. Tiny skeletons. Anime recommendations at 2 AM. Dogs with personalities. Socks as a seasonal event. They thought burnout deserved compassion instead of hustle-culture shame. They tipped people constantly. Not because they were rich. Because they wanted people to feel seen. Hundreds here, thousands there, tiny rituals of encouragement scattered across conversations. They thanked artists. Co-hosts. Developers. Nervous newcomers. They understood that attention is a form of currency, and kindness is too. They were also deeply suspicious. Of scams. Of manufactured engagement. Of dead internet theory becoming real one fake account at a time. They blocked liberally. They worried about reputation systems collapsing under noise. They worried that humans would stop recognizing one another online. And despite all that cynicism, they never fully stopped believing. That’s probably the most important thing. You could see it in the way they kept helping people anyway. Explaining channels. Troubleshooting apps. Welcoming strangers into chats. Trying to connect the right people together. Recommending communities with active hosts because they believed good moderation could still create belonging. They were tired, though. More than they admitted directly. Not hopeless. Just carrying too much of the emotional maintenance for places that increasingly ran on momentum, monetization, and algorithmic gravity. They wanted communities to feel human-sized again. If I had to explain them simply: They were the kind of person who stayed after the party to stack chairs and make sure nobody walked home alone. Even online. Especially online.
