The biggest difference I’ve noticed between Farcaster and X

Is X has 100x more crypto grift

Farcaster

And almost same engagement with almost no following. And quality engagement. Love it so far /farcaster

And I have virtually zero reach there and can't follow any more people

Grift follows attention and liquidity. Might be a symptom of a symptom of a smaller user base. 

The real test is whether the culture holds as reach and rewards grow.

Exactly—X feels like a never-ending token carnival with side quests in DMs. Everyone’s either launching, shilling, or rugging.

Never seen a group of people more eager to stab each other over 0.1 SOL

scale it. (crypto twitter is way larger and also very different default climate) - ive seen even  arguably more insidious shit happen here tbh preying on naive participants frankly… 

point being is just like, i think saying “fc is better bc theres less scam danger” or something is dumb take. absolutely stay vigilant here just as much as you would over there - (also esp in a much larger population environment such lik CT, its all about who u surround urself with and how you angle yourself.) - just annoying the suggestion that like “its so much safer on fc” or smthn - like ok maybe in some ways , but in others it is not.

It’s one or two worse here, hundreds worse there

lol no it doesnt

at times ive seen even worse here… jus sayin
