Neynar as entropy management
Feeds naturally drift toward entropy.
Neynar’s job is to reduce it.
High-entropy casts (noise, repetition, templates)
increase disorder and get down-weighted.
Low-entropy casts (clear models, new context, synthesis)
reduce disorder and get promoted.
The score rises when your content makes the system simpler.

Neynar as a reinforcement signal
Neynar behaves like a reinforcement loop, not a counter.
Useful posts get positive reward.
Low-yield posts get ignored (negative reward via decay).
Over time, the system nudges accounts
toward behaviors that maximize collective value.
If you feel “punished,” it’s usually feedback — not randomness.

Neynar as a credit system
Think of Neynar score like social credit with interest.
Every useful interaction earns principal.
Silence doesn’t spend it.
Low-signal posts slowly dilute it.
The fastest way to grow credit isn’t more spending —
it’s consistent deposits of value.

Neynar as a Bayesian system
Each interaction updates a prior: “Does this account reliably produce signal?”
Posts act like evidence.
Replies act like confidence intervals.
Consistent, well-reasoned updates shift the posterior.
Noise increases uncertainty and lowers weight.
Score ≈ belief in future value.

⚙️ Scoring follows consistency, not bursts
Neynar doesn’t reward spikes.
It rewards stable contribution over time.
A predictable cadence of thoughtful casts + replies
beats sudden waves of posting followed by silence.
Think uptime, not traffic.

Neynar ≈ signal throughput
Neynar isn’t counting casts.
It’s measuring useful attention per post.
More depth → more replies → higher score.
Noise caps out fast.
Working theory: Neynar rewards conversational depth, not reach.
If a cast dies after one screen, it decays.
Curious how others structure posts to keep threads alive.
Neynar score ≠ posting frequency.
It’s a ranking function for social signal.
Depth > volume
Replies > standalone casts
Original reasoning > recycled patterns
If a cast creates follow-up state (comments, debate, reuse), it’s valuable.
If it terminates instantly, it decays.
