If your content is getting zero engagement, you need to change your casting habits. These are called orphaned casts and they are bad. The algorithm sees them as not good. When people ignore your content, it must be bad and the algorithm wont favor you in the future. 

You need to cast a lot to do well here but casting things that get engagement is more important. It’s better to not cast at all than to cast slop, aka something that gets no likes and no comments. 


Here’s a Dune dashboard that shows how many cast or orphaned daily. It’s fascinating.

is this first graf true and if so how does that contribute to a healthy social network if in order to succeed here I have to shoehorn myself into fitting the interests of the currently most active users?

Farcaster is a completely open protocol and you can do whatever you want. But Warpcast is not. If you want to succeed on Warpcast, you have to play by the Warpcast rules, unfortunately.

i read the whole thread, which was great, but i don’t think the last post really makes anything clearer besides reinforcing the idea that winning here requires playing to an audience and doubling down on what gets the most engagement [i know i probably sound insane stating the obvious]
