The problem with the Warpcast Power Badge is that many spammers have it. Here's a list of the top 100 casts with the most recasts in the last 24 hours, made by users with the Power Badge  data.hubs.neynar.com/public/dashboards/b1FfpKPs0IPEVvsopekEgCrlJK7a8CqARAeMRSvC

To create a clean list, I had to manually filter out 145 FIDs that are spamming but still have the Power Badge. You can find the list of these accounts here docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SMqs9VqucNo93k9doDJZMBtUwp4OjuzdwLjBo22MnNA

If I can identify these accounts with a reasonable amount of effort, then so can the Warpcast team. As it stands, the Power Badge is not very useful. Don’t just take my word for it, analyze the data via @neynar

A good illustration of why the problem of filtering out "spam" is challenging.

Most of these accounts are not spam. They are uninteresting to this particular person. One person's spam is another person's friend. It's a relative definition.

If you don’t follow these users, even with the power badge, low likelihood you’ll see them. 

And if they are really offensive, just mute.

Prolly a combo of data + personal.

There's a type of spam that's common to everyone: low quality (untrained) bots. The ones they also can't eradicate on X. The most annoying ones, they're ramping up on FC too.

And there's the preference(s) choice.

Can't call it spam, it's content not interesting for the user. There's a MUTE button (not practical), but a feature with lists would help a lot, or custom / user-defined feeds. Hoping for the best here, not for the traditional "build your own" 😅

But the most annoying (based on personal experience and gut feeling) is the one from bots.

I think ppl are exhausted by the amount of bot spam they're seeing without the Priority Mode. It's truly gruesome. But with Priority we've missed a ton of frens replies, curious if there's any improvement here.

There's a lotta room for improvement (in time).
