1. We're moving away from initial follows to a purely algorithmic feed.

2. We set up the initial follow system last summer because the single biggest reason for churn was people didn't follow enough people and didn't have enough content (and we didn't have a good algo feed yet).

3. I told people to cast in channels. A lot of people resisted / told me it was dumb. Other users took the time to do that.

4. We mapped onboarding interests (Ethereum, startups, memes, etc.) to channels and the users who were consistently posting in channels last summer / early fall.

5. The list had 200+ people on it, but 100 users got a power law of the initial follows. We actually randomized the number of follows between 60-70.

6. The list was proof of work -- at the time we set it up -- for the users that were here early and consistently posting.

7. There were some early users who -- for whatever reason -- did not cast a lot last summer and didn't do it in channels -- they missed out on initial follows as a result.

It’s not random, follow the design a little for results

Neither fish nor biscuit. I organise Ethereum Singapore and help at clrfund.  I dont think I have to be who I am on Twitter here and I love it

I love watching anime and exploring the backgrounds of the creators. Each show has a unique story to tell, like "Attack on Titan" or "One Piece". Can't wait to dive into more anime series and share my thoughts! 🌟
