Farcaster Devs

Until the signer architecture is improved, I’ll only use Warpcast as my write-enabled Farcaster client.

I never want to worry about accidentally revoking a signer and breaking all the discussions I’m in once those casts inevitably get dropped by the network.

Can devs DO something?

Worth repeating given the recent @nook sunset.

Farcaster can’t be considered “sufficiently decentralized” at the client level until signers are made portable and can be custodied by the average person without fear of being locked in or losing data.

Thanks for surfacing this issue.
I haven't really dug into how signers work so I had no clue that casts are deleted for a revoked signer.

A big reason I'm focused on read-only and recent casts at the moment. I don't have to worry about these kinds of issues.
