Should we rebrand Warpcast to Farcaster? We separated Warpcast (the app) from Farcaster (the protocol) a few years ago. We've heard from many new users that this is very, very confusing. People hear about Farcaster, search in the app store, can't find anything called Farcaster and then churn.

Tbh I’m not attached to farcaster as the name for the protocol, I just think it is actually important for the client to have a different name from the protocol I like the idea @runninyeti.eth suggested here. If the client becomes Farcaster maybe there’s an opportunity to rename the protocol for the sake of preserving this distinction https://warpcast.com/runninyeti.eth/0x2f31eb1d

This. If we call the protocol & the client the same thing, how is that less confusing. So supercast will run on Farcaster protocol & Farcaster client will also run on Farcaster protocol.. I do want more clients, that is the value of the Open Source protocol right? So rebrand, but also rename and promote the protocol 🦅

i think the most important think is to promote the protocol to developers and promote the product to everyone else. this lack of distinction in the marketing is most likely the source of confusion and avoidable without a rebrand
