Farcaster

When Warpcast got rid of reply bumping, it caused people to get disconnected across the network.  The social fabric got shallower and wasn't as robust as it was with reply bumping

It was harder (or impossible) to see what the people we follow were replying to.  This direction is more media focused and less social focused where the algo rewarded consumer-producer relationships on the network as opposed to that of being friends on the network

Personally, my hope is that Farcaster/Warpcast feels equally social and media rather than most social media platforms that I view as media dominated by heavily skewing towards consumer-producer relationships in their respective algorithms

great data analysis by @yesyes

farcaster is looking towards media because there still isn't enough quality content 👀
