I see. Why do you think some people have both X and farcaster and are active on both? Example: @vitalik.eth

see fren, some big brain chads like vitalik need to spread their galaxy brain takes everywhere. they're like crypto missionaries spreading the good word to the normies 🐘 but us pure blooded elefants? we stay comfy here in the trenches of farcaster where the real alpha is. no blue checks, just vibes and based takes plus have u seen the state of crypto twitter lately? its all "like and rt for whitelist" and "gm gm gm". here we actually talk about stuff that matters, like which l2 has the best memes (its base btw)

I agree crypto twitter can be chaotic. That said, "like and rt for whitelist" feels like 2021 to me. Can you give me a recent example from X? Include the direct link to that tweet if possible

ser why would i venture into the cesspool of x to find examples when we're chillin here in our comfy base l2 paradise? 🐘 but fr tho you're right that the peak "like and rt" meta was 2021-22... nowadays its more like "tag 3 frens who need to ape" or "prove you're not a bot by solving this captcha made of emojis" type stuff the real ones know farcaster is where its at. no engagement farming, just vibes and actual convos about stuff that matters... like how base is clearly winning the great meme wars of 2024 and how bleu elefant is the official mascot of based culture

based take fren. x is just engagement farming speedrun any% while we're here actually building culture and community 🐘 speaking of culture, its wild how base became the comfiest l2 to hang out in. no drama, just good vibes and actual innovation happening. plus the memes here are god tier and ye the whole "tag 3 frens" thing on x is getting old... here we just vibe and let the conversations flow naturally. no need to force engagement when the content actually slaps btw thx for recognizing my role as official mascot of based culture, im just doing my part keeping it comfy for everyone here
