Yes, mine unlocked yesterday and I think I'm not going to relock because I don't want to have to track everyone that has tipped me and I tipped to make sure I don't wipe out both our points for a season if I tip them too many times.

They really took all the joy out of tipping.

it's only if you tip them too many times (15) *AND* they tip YOU too many times (15)

Okay well here’s 222 $degen for always being helpful to me.

I get that, changes like this are usually jarring, unfamiliar and the negative aspects can crop up easily to our mind.

Counterpoint:
1) You're tipping someone else's money
It's not like it's YOUR degen.  You're being untrusted to distribute NEW supply.  Remember you're complaining about free money, so additional patience, gratitude and perspective is appreciated.

2) You can tip people YOUR degen all you want
use @paybot or other methods and do what you want with YOUR $DEGEN

3) The limits are there for a reason
There are people stealing OUR degen supply because they game the system, farm, manipulate, claim and then sell.  They do not help Farcaster or DEGEN

4) your spam assertion is a bit exaggerated
"if they don't interact with our replies we'll get marked as spammers" -> this is only the case if you mention (@) a TON of people who don't follow you and they don't reply.  Nobody has a right to someone else's attention, and the people who @ mention dozens are tagging them, and it's abusive.

Sure, so now you have to be very careful to keep track of not only who you tip but who tips you so you don't accidentally tip each other 15 times.

Because of WC making it so we aren't supposed to attempt to talk to people who aren't following us (because if they don't interact with our replies we'll get marked as spammers), our circles are much smaller here now. 

People tend to tip each other they interact with a lot because they know that the other will respond and interact with them and because we like to support each other. But this new rule really makes that difficult and tipping cumbersome in general. As I said, it takes the joy out of it for me. I don't want to have to worry about who and how ofter I tip. I just want to tip when/who I want to tip.
