"I'm not a spammy, I'm a real person not a bot." or "Just use proof of humanity to solve spam." 1. Spam is relative: you might not find something spammy but another person might find it spammy. 2. If you are casting in your home feed or to people who chose to follow you, then it's by definition not spammy 3. If you are casting *at* someone else, then their opinion does matter. It's no different than walking up to someone on the street and trying to strike up a conversation with them. 4. Fundamentally, spam is unwanted inbound that tries to get someone's attention (literally what spam email is). 5. Humans can be spammy and bots can be not spammy. 6. What proof of humanity does is limits how fast new accounts can get created, i.e. if you want to create 1000 accounts, you now have to get 1000 proof of humanity credentials. That's friction. 7. However, if you have proof of humanity, you can still be spammy (and still hook your account up to ChatGPT, etc.).

you’re mostly correct, but as someone receiving dubious replies, i do care if they are human or not. if a person has human looking credentials with the same username across several web2 properties, i’ll give them more patient attention than a bot posting the same content. yes they can hook that account to gpt but they can only do so a couple times as establishing web of human looking mutual across various web2 properties for the same username for example is time consuming and likely not worth it. you’re wrong that this introduces friction to sign ups because you offer this as an optional badge and reply ranking prioritization factor, not a barrier to entry to the network i realize there’s very little point telling you this because this is exactly the type of topic where you’ve formed what you believe to be the correct deep opinion and dismiss anyone who disagrees with your conclusion

Spam isn’t subjective to proof of humanity 100% One thing to note is apart from constantly replying users without a response, and being reported by another user is there any other way a user can get marked as spam?

What are the users complaining about? Spammy bots/humans with top level cast in channels or in replies? The spam flag is per account or per cast? Re: #2 if you are a spammer so are all you casts (even in home feed)?

Thoughts about this approach? Is it methodologically sound? Areas for improvement? https://warpcast.com/eirrann.eth/0x1ab2fed9

But isn't “unwanted inbound” subjective? Who decides what's unwanted, unless the affected users are reporting

Claude's interpretation - I think it mostly gets the point. Only feed it the "I'm not spammy, I'm a real person not a bot" cast, not the original

How can user interact on this apps if everything got labeled as a spam. Especially for user with 10 or 20 followers, they try so hard to got attention from other user's but all this apps do is marking they as a spam account. They pay $5 just for being a bot in here? Funny

If a user doesn't respond to someone else that in itself doesn't necessarily make the reply spammy though. This is especially true for users who get lots of replies and cannot possibly keep track of them all.

But if people want to get 1000 accounts, then they should be willing to get 1000 proof of identity

What if you genuinely enjoy a creator’s content and you keep casting “at” them just because of that? Where is the line between pestering and wanting genuine interactions like on any other social apps? Because my takeaway from this is if i keep replying a caster and i don’t get replies i’m supposed to stop replying them so i don’t become spam regardless of if i want to or not
