I think social tipping is an interesting idea, but ultimately it breaks social media IMO. This app interested me more without the added layer of $degen tipping, because communication that is incentivized by gain is inherently harder to trust and adds a layer of gamification that diminishes the social context.

I think if tipping is obscured from public view, along with the development of social norms, it’ll allow for tipping to be more of a discreet act of kindness between the tipper and tippee. 

Creates a lot of feed noise atm, and the high visibility of it causes more gaming the number imo.

2/ Over time, we hope to add more accounts to to this graph, e.g. 2nd degree connections.

Shifting the app to a social graph-based UX means it's much harder for spam or uninteresting casts to be visible.

That said, we will offer the ability to opt out and get everything.

And other clients will do things differently.
