As a user with a Farcaster account, I'd rather see someone's Farcaster username in your app than their ENS.

I interact with people's Farcaster username, not their ENS.

The namespace more closely associated with online identity and my social graph will win.

But it really isn’t. Because ENS and similar were created to avoid just that, so replace using a meaningless address/number with an identifier with meaning. An ENS is recognizable. And some people here do do that, so for them, an app that shows either shows others the same thing.

Ah. That's like phone numbers in emails (a thing for while: 2668550710@att.net). Too many layers in an onion. Most users won't do that.

i meant using ens as your farcaster username

Live in Colorado; TechnoGeek; Proud mother of a fey creature in the form of a cat; part time vegan, part time meat connoisseur; walker of edges.

That actually creates an argument for ENS over farcaster for identity. ENS has existed for almost seven years now, farcaster is very new. People like Vitalik had the ENS name long before Farcaster existed. His twitter being the same as farcaster gives a like, but his reddit is different from either.

Is @vitalik the person as vitalik.eth? 

It gets confusing and I think there needs to be one dominant namespace for users to trust who they are interacting with.

How about apps linking to both, or many, types of identity services, and each user having a setting for order of preference? I put in ens and farcaster, etc. You choose farcaster as primary, you see that, ens as primary, you see that.
