fwiw I don’t think the loudest voices scrambling to claim next Farcon is best for the community I appreciate the recent crew, but I DON’T abdicate my role in making Farcon work lol As a guy who prepaid $8K for a venue when nobody wanted to come, we’re pushing a lot of unnecessary risk + work to new organizers

@grin and I have never been able to “make” anyone do anything here But post Farcon 1, we saw exactly how many people wanted to take our community win and exploit it for their own gain By all means, please keep discussing bc we need it, but personally I’m not gonna support just anything that calls itself Farcon

I was thinking this + Farcaster will be 10x bigger next year and none of the people talking about '25 seem to be planning for that.

Trade offer: I'll take over Farcon 3 off all your hard work, grow it too big and spammy, claim it as my own success and in return I'll give you a DAO token.

a significant subset of web3 culture has always been heavy on attention-economy popularity-contest mechanics, especially when it goes IRL. the trend has hit farcaster culture pretty hard as well. imho the best parts of web3 culture are opposite though: small meetups, indy builders, 1:1 dms, accts *under* 400 follows.

TY. I think the move by Farcon 2 folks to release any claim to it is noble and well intentioned, but also naive. We're post-permissionless, most people here were not invited by Dan. There are psychopaths are among us, and they will gladly take whatever we hand to them.

We just discussed it a bit on recap show (recording soon). Big thing is: do potential organizers know what they are getting into from a time & money perspective? It’s a big undertaking and you’re starting at 0.

I would look under the hood at what /pizzadao is doing and take the learnings from that as well as some of the same from /nouns there is a lot of data and a ton of people globally that are doing similar things already and it would be a huge menefit to learn from them

Hi @cameron as one of the people who spearheaded the Farcon Tokyo initiative, it was very much a reaction to NY claiming Farcon 2025 & the team relinquishing themselves of their duties. I'm not aware of the history of Farcon as a relatively new Farcaster user & so sorry for not consulting you earlier. 👇 👇 👇
