Ok, how do we get more people on farcaster?

"Better content" is the general response but how do we do that.

farcaster is missing news and the memes are too niche

we need journalists and comedians

Few people go to sites with the intention of reading news anymore. It’s become part of our entertainment. Twitter’s entertainment offering includes news and farcaster’s doesn’t. You do the math 🤷‍♂️

this is a very interesting question. you’ll have to first imagine whether the (average) user is using FC to replace or augment twitter. 

I tried completely replacing Twitter for 2-3 months; the cut-off to crypto news was really unbearable. on my part, I try to cast breaking news as long as I happen to be online.
