Farcaster

We say we want a better internet through farcaster but we’re defaulting into the same attention traps as every other platform. Engagement as dopamine. Content as bait. People optimizing for reach, not value.

The scariest part isn’t that Farcaster might fail. It’s that it will succeed just not in the way we hoped. A thriving network, filled with content, drained of meaning.
