AMA about Farcaster—why we made a decision, something that's confusing, strategy, product, etc.

Why shouldn’t devs be terrified that any useful/highly utilized cast composer action will just get coopted and released by the Merkle Team once utility is proven?

weird internet kid. helping Creators with /seemore. yapping on /okbanger. curating in /creators and /cameron. dev + veteran + HBS.

because we opted to build composer actions in the first place as opposed to doing native polls?

Obv I’m stoked to be here, but a more cynical person might observe that composer actions are a really clever way to offload exploratory dev work to external parties and survey what makes sense to seriously lean into

Sorta like the Amazon Basics of social tooling

we could probably have shipped it much faster if we just wrote the code ourselves. 

we're taking a different approach because we want to try creating an ecosystem, even if it isn't the straightest path forward. 

tbd whether it works, but so far looks promising
