Should Farcaster protocol remain a niche/bubble social network for tech and crypto people or open to a wider public?

If it were to open to a wider public, what topics would you like to see that you are missing now? And, most important, how we can make that possible?

My favorite topics include neuroscience, storytelling, architecture, climate change, evidence-based politics and culture/anthropology.

If Farcaster had content on these topics, I would seriously consider moving there permanently (and leaving Twitter).

However, it seems to me that the main obstacle for Farcaster to be adopted by the general public (and non-tech) is the difficulty in managing Web3 wallets and seedphrases.

The road ahead is long 🫠

That's right! Ideally, I'd like to see a new generation of easy-to-use wallets that can be used by my mum, but in the mid term I think it could be a good idea to have Farcaster clients that concentrate more on giving a Web2 experience, perhaps sacrificing some security...

if it was easy, someone else would have done it already

Actually there is a great opportunity for some kind of social recovery setup as part of onboarding.

If you track who invited who, you can suggest already a potential circle of known accounts for that.
