overwhelming feedback from new users is that the content on farcaster is often too farcaster-centric. sharing a few topics i would love to read more on farcaster (and please lmk if any of these are in your wheelhouse bc i would love to help amplify!): 1. popular culture! trend analyses and insights on culture (and not crypto culture). tell us what do gen z and gen alpha (and sure, millennial) consumers care about. i know "men in tech" may not care about this, but plenty of women *do* and there's a lot of us here! 2. start ups! tell us which startups are hitting milestones, getting funding, growing exponentially — and tell us whether you think they are worthwhile businesses or not. 3. data-centric information about technology, the economy, psychology, and everyday life. i love seeing data visualizations behind things that we know and love. 4. more SCIENCE! tell us how pigs could solve the organ donor crisis or why sunshine is good for the immune system. anything! what do you want to read more of here?

From my experience, non-farcaster / crypto content gets less engagement Vicious circle

need to break the circle / cycle and also be okay with not engagement maxxing because this is how it could stunt growth: > user stops posting about topic X bc less engagement > new people come in who are interested in topic X > don't see any content on topic X > new people leave because there's no content on topic X

Welp, good luck with no instant gratification for younger creators, especially those with established following on insta/X I’m older and never been an influencer anywhere, and even I can barely tolerate low engagement

with all due respect, this is the wrong take. Mr. Beast posted on YouTube for 5 years before he got traction. He called it relentless experimentation and obsessed over the YouTube algorithm. His breakthrough video was "Counting to 100,000" that helped him go viral. He has said he was prepared to make content for decades even if no one watched. Alix Earle posted on TikTok for years before she got any traction, too. It wasn't until years in when she posted a video about her battle with acne (content she thought wouldn't get a lot of engagement) that she suddenly gained 2 million followers in a month. starting out with low engagement and grinding for years is the name of the game for the most sustaining creators. tube girl, who got famous overnight without putting in the effort, is already completely forgotten.

TikTok and Youtube are the wrong comparisons. Right now, Farcaster is more like a supercharged X. The early days of Twitter were very much like Farcaster. An organic community that was self-referential. You can't just grow a network like this going super broad.
