meet the team working on farcaster, clanker, and neynar. here's who does what, and how to reach them. for absolutely anything, tag @farcaster. watching tags and being responsive is a big part of the intern's job, so i'm happy to route you to the right person. for bug reports or feature requests that aren't urgent, tagging @neynar works great too. @rish — all things farcaster, clanker, and neynar; tag him for anything. @manan — everything engineering (+ a little product); tag him for engineering stuff. @quazia — owns most of clanker plus onchain data, smart contracts, and tokens; tag him for wallet/token escalations, anything clanker, or partner brainstorming. @vrose.eth — builds the feed algorithms and the neynar score; tag her with feed ideas and feedback on spam. @topocount.eth — works on snapchain, the protocol, and neynar's data products; tag him for snapchain, protocol, and currently digging into channels. @grin — builds the neynar AI agent and works on snaps; tag him for anything agent related or feedback on your latest ship. @ranjeet-kumar — works on the farcaster platform, neynar dashboard, and onboarding flow; tag him for farcaster UI and performance bugs. @obringer.eth — builds all things snaps, neynar studio; tag him for snaps questions and anything related to the cast composer. @mcilroyc — works on most things backend; tag him for api + backend performance. @antimofm.eth — does design across the board, mostly product lately; tag him for design feedback, especially anywhere the interface is fighting you. @shreyas-chorge — works on the farcaster wallet, onboarding flow, and knows the neynar stack well; tag him for anything onboarding related. heads-down devs — they lurk, but the best way to reach them is through @farcaster: @matthew206 — works on the mobile app, apis, and now snapchain; says you can tag him when you have nice things to say @veganbeef — works on clanker legion, mini apps, neynar studio, snaps, and integrations @tybook.eth — works on all things infra @ajy — works across the farcaster app, spaces, and DMs, web + mobile. @vasu-rangpariya (new to the team!) — works on wallet, trading, mini apps, and the in-app browser

heads up for anyone on mobile. we just shipped a fix that removes "Sign in with email" on mobile. a recent bug logged some people out, and signing back in with email is a session-only login. it doesn't put your recovery phrase back on your device, so you can't transact with your Farcaster wallet or connect the wallet to mini apps. if you're in that group, you'll see an in-app prompt asking you to restore your wallet or start account recovery. that's expected. what to do: -have your recovery phrase? sign back in with it -don't have it? tap "Start account recovery" this only affects a small number of users and your account and funds are safe. reply here if you're stuck and we'll help!

android users: yes, we know. we've been heads down on fixing android performance since the first reports and have multiple devs working on it as their highest priority. it's proving to be a particularly stubborn problem. we appreciate the patience and the quick feedback while we work through it.

a large batch of Farcaster Pro memberships expire tomorrow. we're taking our time to figure out what pro should look like from here. both the community and the team are in a different place than when pro launched, and we want to be very intentional about figuring out what the right mix of pro features is. the old pro features are still there if you feel those are integral to your fc experience and want to renew, but we don't expect everyone to. we have ideas we're excited about, including some highly requested features, but we're not rushing anything out. more to come! (fyi, as we roll out new things, like we've done with Spaces, users with pro will likely continue to be our first test group, but we'll be clear each time about what will be rolled out to everyone eventually.)

thanks to everyone who has been joining/hosting Spaces and giving feedback! the vibes have been immaculate and we have kept the devs busy. high priorities on the fix list: -chat input staying put and being easier to follow -variety of audio glitches (when joining/leaving, as a speaker) -silent mode on mobile not having audio -keeping audio alive when you background the space -like 45 more small things we've rolled this out to Farcaster Pro users to start. if you have Pro you can join, start, and schedule from the Spaces section in the left sidebar. rolling out to everyone in the near future! (android pro users, hang tight, it might not be rolled out to you yet because we are deep in a fix for android performance issues.) hear you later!
