Farcaster

I’ve been using Warpcast for about a week now and my impressions so far are positive. I enjoy the platform and think that it has real potential.

With this in mind I wanted to make a constructive criticism related to a particular subject: The initial follow list for new users. In theory an initial list is a good idea as it avoids the daunting experience of looking at a blank timeline. Such a list should ideally be drawn from channels that a new user indicates an interest in. Yet at present it is hard to understand the reasoning for many of the accounts included. 

The founders and builders of the company make sense since they can help a new user get acclimated to the platform. But many of the other names have no explanation. Many are not even active users. Are these friends? Investors? It is an ethical issue too since they stand to benefit a lot if the platform expands. I raise this point with the interest of the platform in mind. If I’m asking these questions I’m sure other new users will be in future.
