Farcaster

"Merkle just helps its friends"

How many times do I have to repeat that most users and developers on Farcaster did not know Varun or myself prior to joining Farcaster.

And in some cases have *become* friends because they stuck around early on when no one else cared. We've spent years with this people socializing on this social network. :)

Don't conflate something that's earned / built with cronyism.

I learned about Farcaster 2 years ago when asking about web3 social on Twitter. I read @v 's sufficiently decentralized post and looked up @dwr.eth on Twitter to ask to join. I didn't even follow them on Twitter or heard of them before.

I've been here ever since.
