Chase Sommer on Warpcast

this is a new user deterrent; i’ve talked about this before too would be good to wipe the bots from follower counts what would you think if you were new here & saw an outsized number of accounts with 50,000+ followers getting 1-5 likes per post? you’d think this place is a ghost town

Curious how many people lurk & don't like stuff I swear I'm only talking/getting likes from like 20-30 people

It's more complicated with Farcaster because it depends on the client. The recent bots interaction I saw from Supercast made me block accounts for the first time here. And I could be wrong but apart from the OG here, Lenster accounts are getting, oddly, a ton of engagement. Ups and downs of an open protocol I guess

Do you think Lens is not pruning bots because they're trying to increase numbers? Like a short-term play? Haven't been over there much. Also, not ripping on them, but I'm just wary these days of engagement numbers in crypto :P

Hehe if you want a dopamine shoot, try Phaver 😊 I was there for Orb and Lenster at launch. I remember their airdrop promises for months heh. We had Bonsai yes, but after Degen, and not related to Lens in any way. I can't believe for a second their parabolic growth. Pure bot farming https://dune.com/lens/lens-protocol

Ok ty for your opinion. I assumed bot farming, but didn't want to be too negative

Oh well, bots are part of the crypto culture. Stan managed to raise a lot of money, @zelda is quite famous, @jessyjeanne made a funny bot, and I guess many other humans took advantage of it. There are some positive outcomes: people made it, others had fun. But I can't consider interactions on Lens as organic 🤷 The neynar score is the innovation here
