Noise for both recipient and readers.

Before tipping was common, replies usually added value to casts.

Tips can show appreciation but low value tips (subjective, but arguably in the fractions of pennies) aren't meaningfully worth anything. Add the complexity price tracking 5+ tipping coins and it feels spammy.

re: tipping as spammy

Most people "tip" with replies because
- it's not coming out of their pocket; it's from a (marketing) allocation for a token to gain attention
- use it or lose it mechanics that create urgency (and drive action)
- the price of the token is purely speculative

Tipping with Warps is the opposite of all of these and (imo) has the best UX bar none because when receiving it feels the most intentional and honest.

Getting tipped in 4-5 digit degen still feels good because it's perceivably "valuable" as long as the price of degen holds until claiming day.

Getting tipped in other tokens I don't follow feels like a cheap flyer being dropped on my cast that others may see. I don't even know how to claim these tips and I can't be bothered to check unless the price somehow skyrockets (it won't)

Call it spammy is a privilege. It's feeding thousands of people.

Do you understand the difference between communication as a public service and communication as a commercial advertisement?

The way YOU tip is THE DEFINITION of spam. 

You were literally moneygunning/hamcannoning casts FROM OTHER PEOPLE to advertise content to people THAT HAVE NEVER ENGAGED WITH YOU.
