Farcaster

What is the most frustrating thing about Farcaster right now?

Reply and like the replies from others that resonate.

I’ll only ask clarifying questions (ie I won’t tell you you’re wrong) and then respond to a dozen or so top answers in a video this weekend with how we think about it.

1. The protocol should theoretically allow for simple transactions to be seamless and they are not. Kind of a crypto problem. 

2. Scanning channels is burdensome, making #3 worse

3. My actions create a worse algo. I’ll like casts to support people or because I’m influenced by their momentum. I’d like an aspirational feed rather than a reflective feed.

It’s probably easier to describe the negative cycle:

-> I like something just barely enough to hit the like button. B- content but someone I’m familiar with
-> That person casts way more frequently than those with A+ content, so I end up liking these more.
-> I’m sent into a B- flywheel, and then feel bad about my choices.

What would an aspirational feed look like?

You guys have written about this recently (maybe Varun), but I’d like the the ability to have one wallet that lets me make in-feed transactions without any app handoff friction. Even considering a 30% rake.
