if you're an artist on farcaster, pivot back to twitter.

curious why? not an artist, but as a collector this app doesn't make it easy to share work in a way that looks great at all. gif support is really lacking too

hi! i shared detailed feedback with dan, but here's a gist of it. - media quality still needs big improvements - collectors still on twitter (many joined fc and left last year) - art platforms are not building on fc (manifold, transient, superrare) - hyper financialization seems to have killed organic interaction - most active users aren't into art (users are hungry for lifestyle content over art) - recent creator focus changes give very instagram/tiktok vibes. feels like moving away from what made fc different (artists != creators) - artist friends already left/have one foot out the door it genuinely hurt to even write my original cast because i hate what twitter has become over the last few years, and i've tried to be so patient to ride out the lull with everyone else here and engage with new fun things going on on fc, but right now some of us need to focus elsewhere to survive financially. 🥲 cc @gracealmera @dijaraj @popszi @architsharma.eth (tagging since u asked why i said so)

Can you actually expand on what you refer as "media quality" here? What does Twitter do better here than Farcaster specifically?

Sure Priyanka has other points but for me I can think of: the ability to upload slightly larger gifs (not to mention multiple gifs), ability to tap and view hi res, images just look better (and are not awkwardly cropped differently on different devices), easier to download usable media (no avifs lmao)

"Cropped differently on different devices" — curious if you have an example of this so we can patch. This is not how it is supposed to work.
