What's something about Farcaster that you want to understand better? 

Might try to write something or record a few videos soon.

Logging into a Farcaster client assigns a signer with permissions to post on your behalf. This demands your full trust in the client's intentions and how it's implemented. Today, I found a compelling reason to revoke most of my signers (🧵):

I think a little public education around exactly how signers work would be good for the whole community, particularly given how easy and cheap it is to create them now. I had a bit of a wake up call yesterday that I wrote up:

co-founder @chaindrop § software engineer § privacy wonk § music head § theoretical memeticist

and deleting a signer invalidates all previous casts using that signer.

After revoking a signer, those casts sent in good faith, maybe many months ago, now appear like spoof or DDOS spam to the network.
