Farcaster

tons of users have been reaching out to me re: spam labels. when i look at their content, these are the 5 most common pieces of feedback i give:

1. don’t only post mini-apps. think of warpcast as early facebook: if someone only posted dolphin olympics screenshots every day, people would tune them out.

2. avoid overly generic content. casting "gm" or inspirational quotes is fine occasionally, but if your feed feels interchangeable with anyone else’s, it’s hard for people to connect with you.

3. don't use AI thoughtlessly. people notice when casts or replies feel like ChatGPT wrote them. it’s fine to use AI, just add real thoughts or emotions. authenticity wins here.

4. don’t repost stolen photos / art from the internet. farcaster values original content or curation that reflects your taste — not just what’s trending on pinterest, reddit, or X.

5. quality > quantity. you don’t need to cast 10x a day or reply to everyone everywhere. take time to cast things you would stop scrolling to read.

I guess the one exception to rule one is if you’re the mini app's creator yet I got turned off of engaging with those requiring so much casting with no content or context.

However, I like to think that my content is interesting but still trying to get scope and views and traction is super hard.
