Other social media apps penalize links because they want to keep their users in their platform. Farcaster love links. Farcaster Frames create rich and dynamic experiences, all in-feed. Farcaster 101, a new educational series by /gmfarcaster in partnership with @snickerdoodle launches tomorrow!

I will just put it here so I can reference it in couple of years: Nothing stops clients from penalizing links in the future when growth stalls and retention hacks will get rolled out like in case of any prior for-profit social apps

This is the natural attract-extract lifecycle of traditional social networks. When a social network is new, all sorts of features are rolled out to make users stick around. Once the network has critical mass, they can roll these features back because users can’t leave. The power shifts from users to network. While you’re 100% right warpcast can reverse course in the future and start to penalize links, if they go too far and create a bad user experience, it creates a space for a competitor who can easily emerge bc we as users can just bring our content and social graph. Switching cost in farcaster is low. There’s no lock in.
