Our near-term priorities

1. Hub and network stability

2. Increase supply of interesting and entertaining content on the network, especially in channels

3. Continue to iterate on frames, actions and developer legos

4. Feed quality and spam algorithm

What problem does it solve?

We have too many hubs right now.

Have you thought about making a hub product? Like an off the shelf, just plug it in to a wall jack and Ethernet hub product? 

I’d buy and run at least one. All I ask is open source code and a built in VPN/IP mask

I talked with so many builders this week, they are trying to increase entertaining content too 😊

This sounds like a good update for once. Been a while and so glad to hear that the direction is finally going on a bit of a positive uptick. I know it's hard to prioritize what you need to do in this sprint process, and hopefully, it will continue to allow folx to thrive in this environment.

are you still hopeful that "high signal" can provide ample amount of entertainment for farcaster or do you want to see more unhinged (possibly an exodus from x)?

Now that’s a perfectly well focused and very down to reality checklist of goals to be achieved. 

This deserves a Bookmark for community follow up 💜

Thank you for sharing these! I will continue ti encourage #2 in my communities!

Interesting! Because today I was thinking about what would it take to gather a research paper on spam detection in Farcaster🤔

Dan says the team is focusing on increasing the supply of great content on FC coz "there's not enough interesting content compared to X".
                                                                                                                                      
Here's why I think they're doing it wrong ⬇️

This is what FC/Warp needs ASAP:
1️⃣ TOOLS FOR GREAT CONTENT
2️⃣ INCENTIVES FOR CONTENT CREATORS
3️⃣ TOOLS FOR BUILDING COMMUNITIES

Let's cover each one ⬇️

Idk why, but this felt appropriate 🤣

Is the hub problem already slowly healing itself, or are there more unforeseen hiccups to be fixed?

Checked what we are doing? Could fit to 2 👀

How to increase supply of interesting and entertaining content

Feed quality includes developing an algorithm to discover new cool casters easier?
