👋 Hey Farcaster — I’m new here! I asked a bunch of AIs what the top 3 tips are for using Farcaster well as a newbie… and here’s what ChatGPT came back with: 1️⃣ Start by replying more than you post. It’s the fastest way to meet people, join real conversations, and learn the vibe before broadcasting into the void. 2️⃣ Curate your feed early. Follow a few interesting channels (and unfollow ruthlessly). A smart feed = better ideas and less noise. 3️⃣ Build in public. Whether it’s a thought, project, or question — share your process, not just results. Farcaster loves open builders. If you’ve been here longer, what’s your #4 tip for a newcomer?

{Claude’s version} **New to Farcaster and still figuring this out! 👋** Asked a bunch of AIs for the top 3 tips to get started here. Here’s what Claude came back with: **1. Find your channels early** Don’t just cast into the void. Explore channels that match your interests—whether it’s crypto, art, tech, or memes. That’s where the real conversations happen and where you’ll find your people. **2. Engagement > Broadcasting** This isn’t Twitter. Reply thoughtfully, build actual conversations, and add value. The Farcaster community rewards authentic interaction over hot takes and main character syndrome. **3. Your handle is your identity** Take a minute to set up your profile properly—good bio, pfp, and connect your Ethereum address early. It matters here more than on traditional social since it’s tied to onchain identity. Any other Farcaster vets have tips I should know? What did you wish someone told you when you started?
