Decided today that we’re not going to be working on /nook anymore. It was originally meant for us to play around with and learn new tech and has served that purpose. We don’t really see a path forward in continuing to build the client, so we’re going to explore some non-Farcaster ideas instead. More soon!

props for shipping quick and making hard decisions how has building a client affected your opinion of farcaster? did you consider other revenue streams on top of nook (outside of sign ups?) i'm sure a lot of fc builders would benefit a ton from your insights!

Farcaster is a place for side projects right now, not serious companies. Maybe will change in a few years. But I don’t believe we will ever see another client compete with Warpcast, which makes it all the less interesting to me with the lack of client decentralization.

Hmm, I think it depends. :) Your time preference is high, which is understandable, but not everyone has that approach. re: Warpcast competitor — browsers and Ethereum wallets are solid counter examples

Interested in learning: how many Staff-SWE+ hours went into the Warpcast client (web + mobile) so far in total?

I am optimistic here, particularly when it comes to channel-specific channels. But if we want to follow the Ethereum wallet example, wondering how would this market look like if EF built their own wallet on Day 1 and advertised it on ethereum.org like Farcaster does with Warpcast (picrel) :)
