People don’t want to see uninteresting replies and casts.

Best way to solve for that is weight historical inbound engagement for a user, i.e. PageRank-like score for every user.

Disproportionally hurts new accounts. Making it harder to get started.

maybe this could be counterbalanced by an algo boost for new accounts with interesting casts?

How do you know what new casts are interesting before they have engagement?

Maybe they get a grace period or for like first 20 casts/replies? Uninteresting content can be detected with that sample size I think 🤔

The existing user still gets annoyed though.

Some of my friends tried to get started on here when I was constantly giving positive feedback about farcaster, but they and I have had completely different experience, even I on my first try here felt like I was being ghosted collectively, I stopped using as I felt maybe I didn't belong.
