Founders

ecosystems like eth op and farcaster will trick you into thinking you’ve made a compelling product because there’s a “kumbaya let’s all win together mentality”. 

Use my app I’ll use yours!
Use my app and I’ll give u a boost here with my large fc following!
Use my chain I’ll use your app!

it’s negative signal and will keep you from the truth: you’re product isn’t compelling enough

Two founder lessons:

Farcaster is a good place to get early users. Not going to solve all your problems, but can help get you started. e.g. Unlonely

Building your brand as a gadfly can attract attention in the near term, but suboptimal in the long term.

third lesson: 
don’t idolize founders when they give advice
trust yourself above all else

Nah, you’re wrong and have been a jerk recently. You’re a good person though and will eventually come around. :)
