Farcaster

thinking about the whole *not enough interesting content* thing 

imo, farcaster culture has always been at its best when it's been about building on farcaster

when the warpcast team was launching a new feature every week, e.g. frames, it was super interesting, and it got a lot of outside attention and growth

the same was true for degen

people here are *interested* in trying new farcaster apps as they're being built, being early

this culture drives growth *and* is interesting and entertaining 

idk, maybe the data proves me wrong?

It might be time for the shitcasters to save the day😂

I think he means entertaining in the sense that people without crypto a crypto and tech background can get feel abit lost on here sometimes

I think partially. Don’t think Merkle team plans to keep all of Warpcast small, but also don’t think you can impose that culture across the entire network effectively

At the end of the day you have to have new users find their tribes

you think so? 

i think it'll actually become more like other socials in the future, and now is the time to foster the culture that'll be dispersed

When we’ve grown, you’ll see that energy and others will see the energy they’re hoping to see instead

It is true, the first interest and attraction should be the technological innovation that the platform offers us, what is done around that depends on the generation of ideas, in Warpcast there are diverse interest groups, and as I said not all of them are programmers or technologists, the lack of diversity or complexity can also affect people's interest.

ah, yes

the *constant yap* factor is important 

i have an idea for that

The problem is this is an intellectually challenging and most people (esp new users on fc) expect it to be more like twitter hence the constant yap about not enough interesting contents..idk if you get what I mean

warning: this guy is awesome… i make music

The entertaining content about Warpcast imo are builders and founders tbh

yeah, and what i mean is the development of warpcast/farcaster/3rd party apps *is* the entertaining content

What he meant are entertaining contents that will most likely attract non crypto users who are onboarded to Warpcast

Exactly, this is exactly why I love your no code app even if you’re not a developer, you will still find it interesting.

yeah, that's a fair point 

and it's why building universally interesting apps is unifying

Farcaster is mostly active with developers and crypto traders, so someone unfamiliar with those areas might feel lost, unlike X, where you can easily find a variety of topics.

Maybe that’s why he said not enough interest content, what do you think about this insight?

Me I’m even interested in understanding what exactly is interesting content 
May be before I came to FC there was something that used to be termed that we newbie aren’t aware of ?

cannot underestimate a vibe shift

tho it can shift back to something super exciting very quickly

especially with the new planned channels buildout

this is so true tho fr fr. everyone either wants to attribute it to the decline of degen and blaming users for  being “tourists” just to grab some free money , among other accounts for what happened, but idk man, those things are certainly at least partly true but doesnt account for it altogether, if we are being intellectual honest imo. i think you are right it has more to do with a vibe shift and shift of focus out of that period that in one way or another became less about building neat and exciting new things and more like preoccupied with filtering the user base and moderating content. and i think thats really why people lost interest just as much as the “cash grab” explanation, fr fr. it started with the power badges. that was the real exodus event that it seems like we/the leadership refuses to want to acknowledge. and its just been more reiterations of the same thing over and over since then. nothing cool nothing particularly exciting…

nowadays all the building they do is spam filtering 🫠🫠

We just want to create something, share it, and have fun chatting with everyone.

I haven’t been on FC long enough but I agree with you
People always embrace anything new here

No one truly knows what he actually meant by not enough interesting content 
Cause interesting can be relative
What is interesting to you may not be interesting to Dan and that’s totally fine, cause we go out to find what interests us

This made me add frog frame to my stack 
It’s a very fun to build experience 
And as a user too

New integrations always boost on chain activity.

I think the pace of new features or apps being built on Farcaster is what keeps users engaged.
