How these airdrops started -> wow there are teams within Farcaster and outside that want to distribute tokens so let's make it easier for Farcaster users to receive and get notified How they are going for me mentally -> thousands of angry notifications and some people going after me personally

Airdrops are an impossible game fwiw Have helped design and do distributions for a lot of them - everytime there’s a cohort of people pissed off

I think you all should take turns in posting an airdrop, but your every post about an airdrop always includes you complaining about how users are bugging you. In a way, I sense that you like the attention deep down, though, lol. Just saying

ugh. brutal. I’m sorry that’s happening. You were so helpful with ours and I think it was genuinely helpful for both the token and the mini app in terms of momentum and community building. 🙏

When money is involved... there is always going to be a winner and loser, and that carries emotional energy with it. Both euphoria and negativity. The line that separates society from anarchy is your inner moral compass. For those with high emotionally fueled impulsive tendencies are probably the ones lashing out, but also the first ones to worship and sing praise when they are on the winning side. Fact is, even if you win an airdrop or not, there is the glass half empty perception... here's some examples. Got Airdrop: But it wasn't as much as the other person... or it dropped after I received it and I didn't sell :( Didn't Get Airdrop: Why? Am I not a human? I deserve to be loved too :( Small airdrop: But the airdrop value is worthless. Why am I getting pennies? :( I think we as people just need to put our expectations in check and understand what/why these airdrops are coming and look at the potential of the projects. But hey, people like easy money. Also, you are doing a great job btw

hey. have dealt with this. don’t take it personally. really unpleasant but has nothing to do with you. most people don’t see it, you are just in the center of the maelstrom so it seems like a much bigger deal than it is

yeah, no one can ever be satisfied. and people will always be mad and willing to lash out people that are happy are less likely to react/comment, and even tho those feel great... we do have a negative bias so it would take 100 positive comments to make the negatives feel inconsequential

You are doing such a good job, we all appreciate you! Block out the noise of folks who think they are owned anything (easier said than done) and focus on the future. ❤️

sad to hear that, appreciate all u guys are doing! one thing i think teams could think about instead of upfront airdrop: create mini app, use noice to distribute to farcaster’s talking about it and sharing it (just need easy way to surface this for the team), then do airdrop later on based on usage cc @srijan.eth
