Some thoughts on spam on Farcaster and how we tackle it. 

First question - What is spam?  

The naive answer is "automated activity" but this isn't right. Over 75% of spam we find comes from real humans who have phones, wallets and x accounts. 

The best definition is "inauthentic activity". It's that feeling you get when you realize that someone who is following, liking or replying to is doing it to benefit themselves and not because they're interested in you.

This is true but sometimes obstructs real people,how then can one know when someone is genuinely interested in you,I feel for the new users because most are trying to get their way around things by replying but they get tagged as spam, some people are not necessarily builders or artists they are just extroverts trying to know people and chat a lot.
