Increased conviction that web3 social wont win because of being decentralized but it can win by being composable! ❌ the goal for Farcaster rn should not be 1B users ✅ it should be to get to 25,000 devs at all levels of stack you've got 1 app? we've got 10,000 composable interconnected protocols, apps, economies

this is different from the current way imo today most or nearly all 3p farcaster development is at the app level, or helping on hubs -- which is all about building farcaster's ecoystem to win in the new normal (post Threads) - i think the win must be to build more with other web3 ecosystems

how does Threads play into this? before Threads one could imagine Warpcast or another "winning" FC app being an Twitter alternative Now, the world has shifted I would focus less on a killer app, less on farcaster as the nucleus, and more on a killer ethereum ecosystem furthered by farcaster (and others)...

I always appreciate your casts Jason. Question - why did being the next Twitter (or apparently being the 2020 Twitter) become ‘the thing’ when Twitter has never been the winner platform in terms of financial sustainability & user numbers? Is it because the devs lived in it so it’s the most important to them?

That's a great question @sallyh ! I do believe it's largely because web3/crypto has used Twitter as it's primary/default social network so a lot of devs naturally thought that if they built a decentralized twitter the community would embrace it

Which could be true but then it’s still a small number within a small number right? I keep thinking twitter has been rejected by so many in mainstream already so why would they want something that ‘looks like’ the thing they’ve already rejected.
