Just an observation: I’m seeing quite a few people (including some I genuinely enjoyed reading) pivot from the content they used to share to just offloading their entire camera roll into “quote cast your capture” type of casts or sharing photos from Pinterest, because it performs better for the leaderboard and makes it easier to crank out 20 casts a day. And honestly, that makes total sense, since it really feels like quantity over quality is what’s being rewarded. But I’m not sure how we’re supposed to onboard anyone if that’s what the algorithm favors and actually rewards. I completely understand why people pivot, stop writing their thoughts and sharing what they used to, and why so many just get discouraged from casting altogether.

It is very tiring to read so many GM, GA, GE, and GN with stolen pictures. It gets very boring to all other users.

For sure 💯 But if this is what gets people to the top of the leaderboard, that’s what we’re going to see. If the algorithm rewarded authentic, quality content and pushed it to the top so people could earn rewards, I’m sure we’d see more of that, and people would actually put some thought into what they share, instead of blasting out 10 posts per hour with just “gm” and “gn.” But based on what’s happening, it seems like Warpcast’s priority is activity, so quantity ends up being prioritized and rewarded.
