what's the main reason for preserving your old reactions? 

i usually just let mine expire, so im curious what people do with their older reactions

Can anyone show me a single user who's running out of Casts and Follows capacity but not Reactions? The storage design is unbalanced AF

Why maintain reactions? Because they preserve the Ranking and Reputation data tracked by OpenRank. Unlike Farcaster OGs with well-established networks, I'm incentivized to grow my rank and reputation to build a following here. If old reactions keep getting deleted, their positive ranking effects are lost for the users I interacted with, reducing their rank and reputation data

Interesting, is that the case with Openrank? Don’t they have historic ranks or sth, or they keep track of very old cast being liked too?)

I don't think OpenRank prunes historical data, only Farcaster does (when you reach out of space).

To be honest, I need to study the Farcaster docs more. 

Here's more on OpenRank and the algo is used in Farcaster! https://docs.openrank.com/openrank/ranking-and-reputation

I mean if your like already contributed to the rank and it’s recorded it’s not needed anyone?!

Need to check how they deal with it! Really interesting :)

One reason they prune is scaling, you don’t want to keep old records as very unlikely you will go back to old casts and likes, but archiving services are not there yet, where instead of the hub you go and request info from there
