Lower priority feature requests - Pinned casts on profiles - Edit casts - Animated PFPs All are nice to have features but don’t solve an immediate top priority

Top priorities - increase supply of interesting and entertaining content - grow retained daily active users - improve developer legos - improve Hub reliability

re: increasing supply of interesting content I would add to this quoted cast - recasting replies seems to do nothing at all, yet people do it all the time - lack of virality in recasts could be a reason why @coolvids churned https://warpcast.com/sdv.eth/0x9147bb56

Edit casts opp has to be a top priority for all of us ESL users (and not only). You guys literally have no idea how exposed we are without this option. I’m always 100% worried about saying something incorrectly and looking dumb. It’s a me problem more than anything but it is extremely hard not to be self-conscious about using the dominant language of this platform. Add folks with dyslexia/dysgraphia and adhd to the mix. People want to use Farcaster freely without worrying about stupid grammar errors and typos. I understand the argument behind “nothing should be changed on blockchain”, but if really needed, we can always pull up the history of onchain transactions/edits. Making all users comfortable casting here is way more important than some bs high concept blockchain ideology imo.

Is there a technical challenge to adding pinned casts on profiles, or was there a decision not to add it for some sort of usability reason? I would have assumed pinning on profiles is no harder to add than pinning on channels.

Edit casts 👉 would increase quality content a) spelling and grammar issues detract from a quality cast (looks sloppy) b) theory: people would add to their previous comments and build them out more if they could edit them… making higher quality casts

when new ppl join and they share interests, do they get suggested channels to join and ppl to follow? if i click photography what channels would be suggested? thinking pre-built channel list feeds could help ppl feel more at home right away i.e. when i click a “photography” pre-built feed, i see a curation/combo of the main feeds from all photography channels, instead of needing to go to each separate one to see the content in them i do this in fiids, would be cool to have directly in here too. the home feed is good but has a ton of content across all areas, and if i wanna see just photos i need to go to each individual channel

edit casts could easily go below animated pfps though. double check your casts mfers.

pinned casts is one imperfect solution to giving emerging frames apps (stories) persistent visibility

I think pinned casts would indirectly contribute to user retention. It lets people highlight their most interesting ideas/qualities for people who land on their profile, which increases the likelihood that they'll get a follow which increases the likelihood they'll retain.

is there any reason why animated PFPs can't be as simple as a setting that can be toggled on and off (with default set to off?)

Would it be correct to say that compared to other big tech companies, Farcaster/Warpcast is being built in public? All of the low priority stuff appears easier to build and big tech companies have this stuff at launch. But FC launched before having many things people have been built. Idk if my question/observation makes sense.

True Even the stories feature showing up around these days is really cool But It's just for fun still, so low priority Something that gets people to stay and interact without the idea of just making money, that's top priority in my books

Priority list seems right, gotta make sure the app is running smoothly before QOL improvements.

farcaster premium where we pay a fee every month to be able to have certain extra features like animated pfps, different color usernames, etc.
