Thought experiment. 

Seems like dissatisfaction with X is increasing again. (Not surprisingly as we are in an election cycle)

But let’s pretend X was built on top of Farcaster. People unhappy could leave and use a different client, without losing their followers or their content. 

What would that look like? What would actually happen?

Would there be alt clients that people would actually migrate to?

Would X be worried about losing market share and work to keep people around?

Or would people just stay on X and complain?

People stay and complain, pretty much like people stay here (WC) and complain not leaving at all (to other clients)

Maybe part of the reason X is successful is because it's good at being a platform for complaining 👀
