People don’t want to see uninteresting replies and casts. Best way to solve for that is weight historical inbound engagement for a user, i.e. PageRank-like score for every user. Disproportionally hurts new accounts. Making it harder to get started.

maybe this could be counterbalanced by an algo boost for new accounts with interesting casts?

No please. I always dreamed about a social where I can read every single post from people I follow no matter what. Something like a real timeline, like discord. If you want you can read anything. Or you could see an option to see the most active, .oat something, but please no hateful algos.

I think at the Warpcast-level, it’s still interesting to track who invited whom. New accounts can inherit a fraction of their inviter’s engagement score. Sometimes I invite/gift people & I’m worried they won’t easily have a way of having their content discovered and I wish I could “vouch” for some of them

This is fundamentally caused by the lack of negative signal in the Twitter model. Try giving users the equivalent of a downvote button Icon proposal: 🙄

The main problem of all others (X & Co.) is exactly that. It is extremely hard for new accounts to be seen, which is a pity. Often times great content is not shown and everyone ends seeing the same stuff... There must be a way to balance high-ranked users with new accounts....

Uninteresting replies are really only a problem for people who get a ton of replies. For people with small followings, which is most people here, I would imagine they would want to see ever reply unless it was just complete spam. I hate missing tips and casts from people that are hidden.

My experience: High signal casts: rare (very), enjoyable consumption when it comes. Most casts: mid-wit, try to engage and you get either no response or the other person gets butthurt. Low quality cast: high quantity, usually makes me smile because it’s all memes. Rather have low quality and high signal casts.

I would copy the tiktok algo tbh ; - Low engagement users only see high signal content - High engagement users start seeing low signal content deeper in their session And independently of the above; - Always high signal for categories users hasn't engaged with yet - Low-signal only in category users like

Similar to how TikTok boosts the content of new users why not boost people’s first x amount of casts and rank from there? Would be pretty easy to determine how “interesting” their casts are if they’re boosted and still get low-no engagement. More casts/engagement the less volatile their “score” becomes

Toying around with an action to help users screen their reply guys and followers. v1 surfaces bots and shills. Future iteration maybe summarizes user casts history. Using tech to help users make feed decisions via decentralized info vs centralized ranking/spam tagging. https://warpcast.com/sayangel/0x907b7c21

What if instead of doing that automatically, you implement a "interaction quality rating" system? You let each user rate an interaction on their cast, from a pov of "was it relevant/useful or not?" Over time, spammy and low quality accounts will move to the shadow ban box naturally.

I’m not entirely convinced that deeming replies "uninteresting" is preferable to having no responses at all, especially for newer accounts with fewer followers (although I do agree that quality matters significantly more as engagement increases).

“uninteresting replies” has to be weighted, context based & user decided or else its damn near impossible to not get wrong unless its objective spam. w/ tips & their acknowledgments (a huge catalyst for recent growth) this is counter to the vibe.

I'd rather not have to worry about accidentally offending the algorithm. I can tolerate uninteresting replies.

There’s an idea from search engine optimization about “Influence Throttling”, which damps PageRank based on proximity to spam. There’s also an angle of channel-specific PageRank that could be cool.
