Virtually all of the people on Farcaster with large audiences:

1. Don't have large audiences elsewhere (Farcaster is their first time with a large audience)

2. Didn't know me or Varun and didn't know each other. The "Farcaster OG scene" is net new creation of Farcaster.

3. Were early and stuck around when everyone made fun of Farcaster (and people still do)

4. Continued to cast interesting stuff, casted in channels when we suggested people cast in channels

5. Warpcast onboarding asks all users for their interests

6. Based on the interests, we pair the account with an initial set of follows

7. There are 200+ accounts on the list, weighted toward accounts that get the most engagement / drive retention, but a large group of people benefit

8. On our list to improve, but the reality is outside of "I should be on the list!" haven't seen any concrete proposals to improve

pls let’s hear the truth that is there’s really only a set of hand picked accounts you have on the autofollow list. come on let’s stop the bs. love u tho

yea, it’s really not working. if those 200 are getting 10s of thousands of followers from being on the list and only getting like 200 engagement at best something is wrong.

If you light a lamp for someone else it will also brighten your path


autofollow list for 200+ people?

Good luck to decentralization

dan making sure the narrative of fc remains in the hands of a few

autofollow list makes absolutely no sense to me (even less when we just pretend it doesn’t exist)

I think the problem is more in weighting + concentration rather than choosing a specific 100 per se. The dispersion of the auto follow list can at the minumum be spread among the broader range of the ~3K or so active casters (PBs) rather than just 60-100 (accounting for user interest selection at onboarding)

Some concentration stats:

- The top 20 users have on avg 50% of the entire Farcaster userbase following them (~300k out of 572K)

- The top 50 users have on avg 34% of the entire userbase following them (avg 200K followers)
