My favorite thing about Japan so far is how punishing tabelog reviews are.  

World’s 3rd best sushi? That’s a 4.2/5

Channels update

1. It was a big change, but overall I think sentiment is net positive across a good chunk of the network

2. The most common frustrations:
a. losing access to a favorite channel, esp. if you had a streak in it
b. seeing your reply "below the fold"
c. older casts in channels disappearing from personal profiles
d. many channels not having clear instructions for joining

So what we're doing this week

3. Continue to talk to users (mostly me) and pay attention to feedback

4. We're considering some tweaks to how above / below the fold works for non-members, esp. if the original caster is following someone. We won't make any sudden changes here, fwiw

5. Strongly considering adding back older casts in channels to profiles (with a label on the cast). The data is untouched at the protocol level, just hidden on Warpcast right now.

6. Continue to get feedback from channel owners / mods / users / developers on making request to join a channel a primitive similar to invites. Again, no sudden changes.

Channels update

Older casts from channels that you aren't a member of have returned to your profile (#5 in the cast below).

To make it clearer—and so channel owners understand why their channel label is appearing a cast from a non-member—we added a simple label on the cast page.

This update is rolling out on mobile, already live on web.

The spam filtering dilemma

Sharing how we think about it so people can better understand:

1. Most people will only use social networks if they are fun

2. Casting something and getting dozens of spammy replies is not fun

3. If you get enough spammy replies, you'll just stop using the app

4. So, aggressively filtering for spam is necessary to keep your existing users happy

5. However, this means some good new users will hit spam filters. Understatement: this is a bad user experience for those people. It would be great to not have this happen.

6. But given the choice of who to make unhappy — an existing user who has invested a ton of time and energy into the network or a new user that is most likely to churn (top tier social networks lose 50% of users!), then you have to optimize for your existing users.

7. So does that mean you don’t care about new users? No! It’s existential to have new users be able to join Farcaster and find people to connect with — without being labeled as spam.

1/2

Here's another way to look at the spam filtering problem. Consider this hypothetical?

1. Let's say you have a new account on the network (Account A) at they reply 100 times to the same account (Account B) with no engagement back.

2. It doesn't actually matter if Account A is run by a human or a bot with AI. 

3. If you have 1000 accounts like Account B, Account A will just stop using the app. They'll move to another network or a messaging app.

4. Ideally, Account B would reply thoughtfully a few times and Account A engages with them, and then it increases over time as they build a relationship.

5. If you say "well 100 times is too much, but 50 times is fine", then you're admitting humans can be spammy and we're now arguing over the definition.

6. Side note: I don't think anyone is ready for a world where bots powered by AI are as interesting—or even more interesting—than humans.

Design

always been a fan. since the day i played batman begins for the first time on playstation 02 (i was a kid back then and it was my first time knowing the hero). now batman is a symbol for me:  
u can be badass af even after having a frustated life and still not goin crazy.  
what pisses me off is that they dont give a damn about what we fans think abt the character and just did this rebranding.

wanna know ur opinions. what do u guys think abt this?

Warpcast

Feature idea:
As a user, I want my favorite casts to live forever, but I understand hubs don't have incentive to.
Solution: Any casts I "like", save into my device's local/cloud sync'd storage. Let them show up in my search results. Let me pay warps to revive posts on main hubs if I want to share them.
