AMA about Farcaster—why we made a decision, something that's confusing, strategy, product, etc.

why isn’t Warpcast leaning into short form vertical videos like every other social app right now?

(not saying you should, just curious to hear your perspective)

(and plz don’t say “sounds like a great opportunity for another client”)

thx in advance for a thoughtful answer: have a great day pops 🫡

ok now that I’m off the clock I can give a real answer:

it would really mean a lot to me if you turned the channel bubbles into an ig story like feature. idk why not: don’t know the numbers but I’d assume it’s the least clicked of part of Warpcast.

or even worked with moshi on some sort of direct cast action or literally anything to let me show photos and videos to a specific audience, that click on it knowing it’s something I posted today (ie my walk home from work, my lunch, a selfie…)

plz this would be so cool and (selfishly) would make me love using Warpcast/farcaster so much more.
thoughts? @robin @mikey 🫡

(this doesn’t rly have to do with the question my brain is just tweakin rn)

if you’re reading this far: wow. thanks?
I also think that we desperately need more young people on here (under 30)
and the majority of the content that they consume is short form, vertical vids. the way I talk with my Friends is sharing ig reels. without a feed of short memey vids, I can’t share them.

we don't have many people on the network who are consistently creating new short form vertical videos on other networks right now.

happy to be wrong if someone can provide a bunch of examples
