I grew my Twitter by tweeting about literally whatever I wanted, but now that I have an audience, I feel like I can't tweet about anything that interests me unless it fits within my "niche." Kind of sad. Big reason I love Farcaster... I'm all over the place here. As it should be!

Twitter has also really changed - so much snark and negativity

Any thoughts on what could prevent the same fate for this app? This seems to inevitably be a problem with scale and novelty that affects most social networks I can think of.

You’re describing a return home with FC, @gaby. Love this.

exactly what I feel here in Farcaster. despite not having a Twitter audience I always felt the hostility whenever you're out of the algo agenda. like Ye said: "go to places where you're celebrated, not just tolerated"

I don’t want to be a Debbie downer and also really love Farcaster and the people Dan has curated here. But I just want to point out that this same vibe is basically always there whenever tech insiders forge a new social networking space at the beginning. Law of small numbers

Heard that from few other folks that have medium to large audiences. Having a big audience is kinda like owning a house that's a bit out of your budget in that way. It begins to own you than you owning it. FC FTW

yess love to see you as whole person. I think its a matter of scale as well, you shift from an individual to an abstraction (content creator) and folks are consuming what you produce vs having a conversation with you. FC is still small enough everyone retains their person-hood.

tweet for yourself, not your followers if someone judges/unfollows you for “tweeting outside your niche” are you *truly* worse off without em? (agreed about purple > blue tho)

Have you tested tweeting outside of your audience/niche? I get wanting to service the people who follow you. But you could lead them down more rabbit holes that you care about! Passion is contagious.

Why do you think you need to change now that you've grown your audience? Would it not be counterintuitive to tweet about only niche things when you gained your audience tweeting about whatever you wanted? Truly interested, thanks.

You are probably already familiar but just in case: look into audience capture (https://theportal.wiki/wiki/Audience_Capture)

You need to be building massive audiences and then tweeting wildly off niche things to cull the non-believers

You should still tweet about whatever you want. You never know what impact that particular message may have on someone outside of your "niche".
