Farcaster

One point of feedback we got on the Snapchain design doc is that we didn't fully explain why sync in the current model is a problem. 

@sanjay wrote up a good thread on our internal slack, which i'll try to summarize below.

@pfista did this at the app level for buoy because he didn’t want to index some particularly noisy accounts

have you found buoy's utility increased by doing this beyond the obvious spam mitigation benefits

Yes some people were not creating buoys because they were getting too many spammy notifications. 

Now signal is much higher and more useful for people to get notified about keywords they want to track
