largely why we shouldn't optimise for video content; we're 5 years too late

yt, tiktok, instagram know me better than my mum

the algo knows what i want to see 

there's also abundance of content there 

likely no reason why i'd ditch them and go elsewhere

what if fc mini apps became the new product hunt? 

what if fc wallet + feed becomes a trader's safe haven? 

idk i keep thinking a lot on how farcaster should uniquely 100x and spend $10mn over the next 12 months to go big or go home 

the team / founders are incredibly talented and there's opportunity cost

maybe it's a decade long slow grind to wait for a canonical event that floods new valuable users

but is hope a good strategy?

i ask this to myself very often each time i say 'i hope xyz happens'

totally agree that trying to compete with tiktok makes no sense

farcaster is special because it's not built for passive consumption — most people come here to build, learn and form genuine connections instead of chasing clout

that's why I believe video has real potential here — if done right, it can actually deepen the connection layer that already sets farcaster apart from other networks

there's an opportunity to create a new kind of video experience, one focused on authenticity over dopamine loops
