Some thoughts on spam on Farcaster and how we tackle it. 

First question - What is spam?  

The naive answer is "automated activity" but this isn't right. Over 75% of spam we find comes from real humans who have phones, wallets and x accounts. 

The best definition is "inauthentic activity". It's that feeling you get when you realize that someone who is following, liking or replying to is doing it to benefit themselves and not because they're interested in you.

Q: There's a lot of rumors about not tagging people. People say don't tag more than 3,4 per cast. Would be nice to be clear about that. 

Fwiw I think akshaan has done a fantastic job. The good it does outweighs the mistakes it makes. I compare farquest notifications with Warpcast and think I'd have gone crazy if it weren't for Warpcast's protection.
