hey new Farcasters! Pay attention, here's some info for ya 1) You have a custodial wallet created for your account. Your seed phrase is in your profile settings. Back that shit up like you do other seedphrases. 2) If you have an ens, consider switching that wallet as your default here...mints etc will get sent to it

3) You will see these "frames" things kicking around that you can interact with. Some of them have an API that will trigger an airdrop to your wallet - have no fear, these do not directly interact with your wallet, though likely will be able to in the future, so feel free to PLAY

4) You will see WARPS and think wtf are Warps? These are a centralized "in-app" currency that can be used to purchase storage for your account, tip to other folks, purchase channels, or even mint NFTs on Zora (that are dropped into your connected wallet).

5) Farcaster is the Protocol, Warpcast is the client. There are many clients, some Twitter-like, some Reddit-like, but also others 6) Group chats are newish, Video is very new. The team is awesome and trying to build at a pace that they can sustain. That means not everything is going to be 100% perfect for YOU atm

7) The community is full of web 3 builders, and those passionate in decentralization. Reputation matters more here, the vibes are MUCH nicer here, please remember that this is not a billionaire-owned app when you are wondering why something currently is lacking for you

8) You are not penalized for posting URLs or different types of content in efforts to appeal to an advertising app masquerading as a social media app. Post what you like. Be as present or as detached as you like. Be yourself. Invent a persona. It's up to you.

this imo is the best experience a social media app should do but all others failed. Hope Farcaster succeeds here
