so long as ted is #1 trending account on farcaster, fc will never make it

you don't have to be a fan, but data literally tells you fc needs more accounts like ted 🤷‍♂️ 

i assume it's based on algo that might be a bit biased, but in general it probably checks out.

fortune cookie casts, memes, parenting, building frames, /framedl, /framedl-pro & /calmer

she's the voice of most densely populated part of the bell curve. what some might call "social glue". 

imo you need these people, otherwise the network becomes more and more disconnected until it is no longer a network.

maybe that's the end game, but you gotta get enough people to participate in the separate "units".

there's plenty of unique content here, but it's just not that interesting to enough people.

unique and interesting is great target, but very hard to get uf there's such a small audience.

it’s a copypasta, i mean im sure the data says lots of stuff, but im also saying the people that want more accounts like ted aren’t my people and they certainly don’t make up the entire population of the world

content like Ted’s is a dime a dozen, everywhere online

we need totally unique, interesting content to pull people in here, a moat

1) yes, i think we all agree on that

2) yes and haters want to feel good too (i know, i'm a grumpy old man)

3) yes, but having haters is still preferable to having no one 😂 ("the opposite of love is ignorance")

FC needs more accounts, period. 

people often want to hang out in places where they feel good, which is typically *not* with haters unless they’re haters themselves. human behavior and psych 101 — not some complex, behind-the-scenes string pulling.

fwiw there’s a dif between being critical vs hater.
