largely why we shouldn't optimise for video content; we're 5 years too late

yt, tiktok, instagram know me better than my mum

the algo knows what i want to see 

there's also abundance of content there 

likely no reason why i'd ditch them and go elsewhere

what if fc mini apps became the new product hunt? 

what if fc wallet + feed becomes a trader's safe haven? 

idk i keep thinking a lot on how farcaster should uniquely 100x and spend $10mn over the next 12 months to go big or go home 

the team / founders are incredibly talented and there's opportunity cost

maybe it's a decade long slow grind to wait for a canonical event that floods new valuable users

but is hope a good strategy?

i ask this to myself very often each time i say 'i hope xyz happens'

You could say the same thing for text-based content we've been working with for the last 4.5 years.

Video content is more compelling for a lot of people.

Mini apps are great for retention, but, for the most part, don't drive top of funnel growth.

feel like ct should be the next milestone. 

video is hugely competitive and don't think fc has any advantages for most video creators.
