Farcaster

My hot take of the day:

One of the reasons farcaster’s clients (Warpcast, supercast, etc) have inhibited appeal to “normies” is the fact that it feels so superficial.

Any discussion that isn’t crypto related is *usually* too flowery. Rarely see any real “screw-you!” Type of disagreements. Almost seems like people are scared to have genuine conversations because the space is so small right now.

There’s no room for niche groups to grow. You hop on Twitter and you’ll find every subculture there is to find: alt-right body building bros, alt-right business grifters, furries, communists, social activists, weebs, a community dedicated to finger boarding, etc etc.

There’s no real discourse, or drama. (Which people thrive on)

While I’m sure many of us probably enjoy to step outside *that* type of internet bubble, I really do think farcaster suffers from a genuine identity. It half-asses too much. Our we a strictly crypto-based social media platform? Or are we trying to be more? Who are we?
