naive take regarding virality tbh. study the cases of every major social app taking off, and tell me that virality isn't important. one can die on the hill of being a thoughtful saint, but that's not my hill. i'm the character that does everything it takes, so i'll proudly have you all know that i'm not a saint.

Naive is believing that hyperbolic growth and engagement at all costs is a benefit to anyone but the virus Your argument is also an appeal to authority which is a well known logical fallacy

Do you really want to become like existing major social media? You're participating in its destruction. Conceivably because there's something you don't like about it. I think we're all here bc we want the future of tech to be more thoughtful.

virality and thoughtfulness aren’t mutually exclusive. often thoughtfulness -> virality, true of apps with strong staying power. i’ve also studied this. would love to chat over coffee to see where we converge and diverge!

@dwr.eth himself said that one of the positive things that's come out of farcaster (at least the earlier era) is ppl without audiences before getting surfaced, and that was exceptionally true about clubhouse too transitioning that to handful of ppl deciding what's good and bad is not it

the casino mindset leads to short term outcomes, ie clubhouse went 'viral' but eventually turned into a cesspool of lowest common denominator creators the thing that drew ppl there, and to here is the high signal and that perception is definitely starting to change

Getting rid of the VS mode on perl because someone thinks people should meet up with their personal expectations is not what I expect of the motive behind farcaster at all
