⬆️ And because the judgement is without transparent algos and built-in biases, it is triggering sth in me. Sth that could easily be ignored like well there is not much a consequence really. YET, maybe it is this insidious and everpresent feeling as this has always been the case for long time since digital existed. Your credit score, lending, social media, and work. We just did not know our scores as well as the reason. Now we know the scores, but still NOT the reasons and the biases except the fact that they exist Subconscious is consciousness. I am grateful to have the opportunity to be triggered innoculously ( for now) on hyperjudgement and feel and grasp the feelings of being judged, calculated, and ranked. It is like a lab where we are the willing lab rats and the researchers. The unseen is now seen. It leaves a bad taste. But you know now atleast what caused the taste.

There is a challenge with the algos, for sure. But there is also a challenge with those gaming the system. Here on Farcaster, transparency of the algo has led to people gaming the system to take as much of the pie as possible, without trying to add value to the network. At least the principles here have been transparent, and mostly the algos seem to be a good filter here. Not always, and some people are unjustly classified, but you can get out of that.

Agreed. Oncw the rules are open it becomes a game. And hence can be gamed. Also I feel farcaster rewards feel somewhat predictable, and there is a sense to it. So there is not a high gap and the shock value. Wth the data being open now everyone can create rankings. I used c open judgement protocol" o make the phenomenon more tangible. And that is not worse , but better than before taking the baggage of the past where none were possible. Subconscious is consciousness now.
