There are people in my home feed that I used to see, that I never see anymore (yes, they still seem to be casting) What happened?

I’ve felt this in regular phases since degen launched and the network grew tenfold overnight. Feels like we get shuffled around every now and then to expose us more to newer faces? If there’s a bell curve for people we follow and how much we interact with them, my guess is those in the middle are the ones that are most likely to be deprioritized. Would be curious to hear about the experiences of @cameron and others who did major culling of their feeds and how it’s worked out since.

Deleting my follow list was a huge mistake tbh I reply a ton and most equally and that meant my whole feed was reply guy energy until I made a concerted effort to focus on people that I care about their top level casts I think algo is going for mostly hyperlocal (overfit recent) interspersed with “farcaster wide bangers” Since there is only finite time/attention/space for bangers it really narrows the pool of “outside of your recent bubble” people to pull from also people who were big on “old Farcaster” often don’t cast enough to keep up with the “new Farcaster” content velocity Also some people are stickied for sure (either explicitly or as a result of bot waves juicing their “organic cast metrics” beyond reality)

It’s a big loss algo works that way. Big chunk of content I find valuable comes from Farcasters who cast irregularly

true, but that's the nature of ephemeral short form text 🤷
