PSA If you're majority casting low effort stuff like this, Warpcast is going to start filtering this out of feeds for people who don't follow you. Still trying our approach of education / assume good intent (esp. since people are paying money to the protocol)!
And for those who think this is a losing battle—maybe! But high ROI to try education (doesn't require any engineering work). But our plan is to start filtering this. And remember, you're free to choose a client that has a different approach. Similar to email services having different spam filters.
Autoshare posts like this for education then Dan, don't just shadowmute them https://warpcast.com/ispeaknerd/0xa33cca4e
Great. I’m tired of blocking low engagement casts, and honestly as a paranoid security person I’m glad you’re taking action. I have no proof of malicious behaviour yet but these low engagement casts make me more skeptical. Also, do I see viewcount 👀
Reads like a low effort automated bot?
Lol. I mean, c’mon are you NOT inspired to go grind after reading that???
These look like bots. Perhaps they are trying to amass followers (by way of engagement albeit low quality) to eventually sell the account (swapd for example)
The effort is nice to try to minimize spam/worthless casts, it would also be ad-hoc imo, if you highlight the algorithm to boost the worthy ones. Tbh in my feed I find a lot of interesting and diverse posts, which is why I spend more time here than on X. I say this because I believe it is pretty obvious...
Is the filtering/sorting algorithm for Warpcast publicly available anywhere? I think this is a great move, but I can imagine some people getting up in arms about it. Having more transparency on it would probably shut them up.
and what about this? not a direct malicious behaviour, however, annoying to see programmatic likes
One solution could be to: - create a Fortune Cookie channel - have these casters find their way there - have a builder make a web app that randomly serves a fortune cookie cast
Warpcast is undoubtedly a high-level protocol. Now I'm left wondering if I'm going to be able to live up to it.
What's that chart icon all about? (asks then goes to look...)
Wait! Do I see each post’s views/impressions in this screenshot? Is this going to be released to all?
No doubt it’s an uphill battle, but glad you’re trying stuff and (maybe) breaking things lol
Even if I got filtered out, this is something I support and would like to see the result of it after 2 months.
who are we to marginalize the undesirables?
I'm in favor of filtering this stuff out, but I'm curious how it's being done. Is it a simple check for repetitive posts and single word replies, or is there some sort of more advanced AI?
Am I right to assume there's no problem with using structured but short message formats for specific use cases such as @survey replies? (In that case the reply is almost always just a number with perhaps a word or sentence of explanation that probably seems random without surrounding context....)
Strange bots have started appearing in recent days.....
Maybe have a pop-up screen upon opening WC the 1st time, that displays the latest ground rules and an “Accept/Acknowledge” button? And have those available after that in a menu? I feel like many new users cannot find out easily about what’s acceptable on WC, or find out the hard way through a shadowban.
agree with it, some messages are not relevant to the channel
what is the method for finding the account and determining if it’s low effort content? are you manually tracking / making this decision?
and that’s why i love this platform so much! thank you for your work
This is a good idea but how we can get more follower because we are not influencer and nobody know us ... tell me what should i do !?
