Most people with large audiences on Farcaster: 1. Didn't know me before Farcaster 2. Did not have large audiences on Twitter or other platforms They were early and stuck around. https://www.eugenewei.com/blog/2019/2/19/status-as-a-service

To be fair, most people with large audiences on here were either a) on an auto-follow list and/or b) are mostly followed by farmers and bots

1. Auto follow list is based on interests which map to channels. 2. Auto follow list is 200+ people and it has randomness in it for 15% of follows 3. Auto follow list are people who were early, stuck around, and kept posting 4. Mostly followed by farmers / bots -- same for any big public social graph :)

Definitely agree there is something to be said for being early and sticking around, Farcaster is my favorite community on the internet :) But I'm also not getting *hundreds* of bot followers per day on any other social platform and I would guess that no one on here has more than 20k "real" followers

You get a lot of bot followers on Twitter per day if you have a large audience. Difference on Warpcast is we're funneling followers to a chunk of the network. We will iterate on this, just not highest priority right now.

Is there a public list of priorities? Lots of people looking for onchain summer projects and would love the know what the team thinks is important to solve for.

I onboarded my mom to farcaster a bit over a month ago and she selected all non-crypto options on the onboarding flow (travel, fitness, food etc). Due to the auto follow list being almost all crypto folks, her feed was filled with almost nothing related to the interests she selected. Instant reaction was to churn.
