Warpcast will remove "likely to be spam" accounts from follow counts soon. Likes and recasts from spammy accounts have been removed from counts for several weeks. We're now going to remove follow counts from these accounts as well.

How much will this change my follows? On average, follow counts will go down by ~20%. But some newer accounts may see a much lower percentage and older or more famous accounts may see a higher percentage.

estimates based on https://dune.com/jkavithamahesh/farcaster-followers-and-following-with-spam-label-by-fid?fid_n26d36=234616 seem to put that at much higher than 20% for older accounts that I have looked at. Just to give some examples: @samantha will be loosing 46% I am going to be loosing ~50% @tricil.eth will be loosing like 72%. FWIW I think this is a good thing but I think the scope of the affect is going to vary wildly between accounts and people should be ready for that.

Have you considered showing qMAU follower counts? Might be a democratizing force.

Oh this is great. I was thinking of starting a new account because so many of follows are bots that mass-followed when frames launched, and there was no way to get rid of them, so considered starting from scratch, but hope this update fixes it.

I'd rather see that left to the user though. I have a tool/frame to drop this weekend that I hope helps a little.
