What if the fc graph topology doesn’t make sense for the app? @zinger has a good take here that the fc graph is for friends not followers - I’m not sure if it makes sense to import it in other social contexts https://warpcast.com/zinger/0x23ca9a39

this is a highly opinionated take from @zinger FC graph is a social network graph which means people will use it in different ways The most bullish case for FC is that it will be the last social graph that you really need to build and maintain

Likely to splinter into multiple graphs at a certain point with shared identity

Nah those don’t have shared identity, I think it will be multiple graphs built on top of the Farcaster identity layer

oh, i consider ethereum a shared identity in this case. farcaster account and lens account are both tied to ethereum address.

Yeah but an Ethereum address doesn't tell you much about who the person is, just what they do. Unless you're considering ENS as the "who they are" part?

if the eth address is tied to these other graphs then it tells you everything that all those graphs tell you by way of the relationship. its the unifying address and clients can pull from the related graphs for their use case. clients are already doing this.

This assumes that folks have one ETH address which most do not, gets trickier as number of addresses per user grows

patiently waiting for someone to effectively solve this issue but there’s not much incentive to do so https://warpcast.com/kyle/0x71df4e5c
