@harris-

recently I was looking to take inspiration in a lot of the sentiment that has been echoed by some people re: farcaster the protocol has a lot more than warpcast / social media the product, but the more I tried to think of a way to build upon that the more I kept finding things preventing it through these lower level primitives. Experiment: imagine how you might create a new client that treats casts as blog posts with .md or something. I kept ending up with the only solution being to disregard text and use links like you have with lemon3, but then you have timestamps that may or may not be related to publishing, no edits, you can only link 2 things through a cast one of which would probably have to be where the actual content is hosted etc, on top of a lot of wasted data types like mentions and reactions(maybe), anything custom on top needing global protocol discussions and improvements or be rejected from the network.. 🤷‍♂️ maybe I'll play around again at a later date to see what can be done :)
