best farcaster developers build on neynar.com | /neynar

Lately, I've heard ppl saying that a lot of high-quality users are joining Farcaster. So I decided to check the data, and here's what I found:

- Since Aug 01, FC has gained 20k new users
- 9k casted at least once
- 5k casted 1-10 times 
- 550 casted 100+ times
- 160 casted more than 370 times
 
The data (which I got via @neynar) shows that over 50% of the new users have never made a cast. For context, the average OG user, such as @phil, makes about 369 casts per month (root + replies).

I even built a quick app that runs locally on my PC. Each time you click refresh, it shows a new user who joined since August 1. The goal was to see how many high-quality users I could find in 30 minutes, but I found none

I also ran the data for lens and found something very similar. Suggests to me there is material yet low effort airdrop farming happening via account creation on both platforms.

I see automatic looking replies everywhere, stuff that doesn't relate to the post and so on. 

I try to report the excessively obvious ones at the least, even my own repliers 😅
