A big issue for platforms like farcaster is that it took me 4 years and a ton of effort to build up an audience and following on twitter. The ability to port that network over to farcaster is crucial for ppl to fully migrate to this app. It’s just too much work to go through again for an app with very similar functionality to where your network already exists. I feel like it’s just too difficult to scale up the user base effectively without the ability to port over easily.

The issue is your audience won't port over in terms of DAU / habit. So at best you get 10-20%. And Elon has shut down the official follow APIs, so any way you try to export would be clunky, have low uptake.

Because the format is so similar you could simply simulcast on both and give the option to your followers to find their way here. There are clearly people on Xitter that are simply fed up with it and giving them a conduit to calmer platform would be a service to them and expand your overall footprint. This can be a fluid process over time, doesn't take much imo.

I can only speak for myself but the vibe here is different, and it feels much more difficult to gain a natural following, and it isn’t a content issue but rather a visibility issue. Power badges is a bad implementation to shove a spam issue under the rug. So without an ability to port users there seems to be little point to the platform for me, i don’t want to post into the void. Is the goal to only have influencers here and hope their following comes with them or is it to be a place for open discourse for all? Personally I prefer twitter.
