To be fair, most people with large audiences on here were either a) on an auto-follow list and/or b) are mostly followed by farmers and bots

1. Auto follow list is based on interests which map to channels. 2. Auto follow list is 200+ people and it has randomness in it for 15% of follows 3. Auto follow list are people who were early, stuck around, and kept posting 4. Mostly followed by farmers / bots -- same for any big public social graph :)

Definitely agree there is something to be said for being early and sticking around, Farcaster is my favorite community on the internet :) But I'm also not getting *hundreds* of bot followers per day on any other social platform and I would guess that no one on here has more than 20k "real" followers

You get a lot of bot followers on Twitter per day if you have a large audience. Difference on Warpcast is we're funneling followers to a chunk of the network. We will iterate on this, just not highest priority right now.

Is there a public list of priorities? Lots of people looking for onchain summer projects and would love the know what the team thinks is important to solve for.

so is “quality” just like something u decide bro? is it possible that things can be quality for others even if they arent “quality” for you , or simply out side of the bounds of your particular set of terms by which you determine “quality”? everything else sounding dope, but sheesh thats a bold implication

more than quality its about match making with just enough room for random walk type explorations. Keeping it unopinionated at the current level is crucial
