must be the warps withdrawals but fuck it i'm diving back into this thread to catch you up: i'm a fan of privileged first party clients and now to flame it some more: i'm all for secret features in 'em too testing like stats on this one, so my expanded thoughts are in the next reply 😇 -- first, check the thread: @dwayne defends going all-in on the algo feed as the fastest way to get a good algo feed and i think kinda the main argument @ghostlinkz.eth brings up is the opaque nature of the algo

let's even take it one step further -- (and i'm actually composing this thread manually in warpcast because @supercast scared tf outta me on my last on thread and only posted the first cast? but thank god the rest was saved as a draft somehow? @woj.eth, this is a bug report) -- and say that ALL clients should get to have secret features like, uh... *obviously* you freakin' free market minions but also, because SOCIAL MEDIA IS NOT LIFE OR DEATH and yes, i'm conceding that social media bridges economically disparate cultures and many of their associated marketplaces for some become their way to make a living -- I GET THAT but certainly farcaster is not there yet and to BANK on farcaster is, uh... not advised yo? like um actually NOT a sure thing, mmkay? if you wanna be early, then place your extra chips. add to the pot. build value. *grow* something. OR (and this is totally cool too, no judgement) ride the boat till it beaches somewhere and switch off yet another social network (remember google+?)

but right, secret features, let's reel it in warpcast should have secret features. i'm a fan. i'm not demanding this, but listen: i. love. subculture. it's hard to walk the line between in-crowd out-crowd stuff, but i believe a "cult following" is kind of like maybe one of the sickest things to participate in (and uh, TO BE CLEAR, 'm talking about pop culture cult followings here. i'm talking about being a fan of something.) and if you hide something people want, and they find it, and then your stupid analytics pixels says more and more traffic is hitting _some dumb endpoint_ then you can "pRoVe PmF" or some shit 🤮
