@july Remember that time we met in our IRL personas and I was like "You gotta get on this app called Farcaster, it's great!"? Back then I was thinking it was great because of your stuff, and I still feel that way. You're an inspiration. So much more feels possible when you're around. Thanks for being here.

Ah I remember this fondly 

When we both found out we’re on the same app and already followed each other and knew of each other 

Appreciate you @7858.eth

what Farcaster has going on right now is really unique
- a community aligned around shared values of digital sovereignty
- a talented group of devs building a shared, open infrastructure together
- a user base willing to try new things (and sometimes even pay for them!)

this place really is unbelievably special right now, already getting nostalgic since I know it can't/won't always be this way

Outcomes with tremendous potentially high or desirable outcomes but low probability, operating with less capital, low visibility, fog of war

But what do you have instead? Operational efficiency, courage, guts, lack of organizational inertial - and balls

it's never as good as it seems, it's never as bad as it seems

good sunday to build something — or go outside, touch grass, and lock in for the week ahead

it's never as good as it seems, it's never as bad as it seems.

605 km away 📍 and i just realized today that you can move on the map instead of only orbiting around it...

ending the weekend with 600+ /firefits followers!! 😭 😭  

It's a sunday night, way past my bedtime buuuttttt... reviewed all the feedback and leaning towards:
- hypersub ?
- weekly best fit rewards (criteria TBD) ?
- Fit challenges! ( /los-fomos x /firefits )?  
- no I won't launch a token...yet 👀 

Also I thought these micro-trends were really cool to see ❤️‍🔥 !! OK GN

learning that people can’t imagine how things look or don’t have an internal monologue is like discovering a new species. literally wtf how do you live like this

Food

back at The Place

ramen gets so much attention — meanwhile, the autochthone noodle traditions of SEA are on the qt but so much better

Tonight’s dinner: Butter Paneer

Fun fact: I rubbed Thai chili in my eyes and had to take a shower before we ate.

Circle filled for IPO. It’s interesting to see the amount of revenue and split that comes from Coinbase

We ran our first few airdrop offers to Farcaster users and it's been going great with user activation for projects! DM me if you're interested in doing an airdrop to target high quality Farcaster users

I tipped 10 people using the new tip feature on Warpcast. My fat fingers clicked away from the frame that would cast who they were. You will see a notification if you were tipped, I just won’t be able to tag you in a cast.

I imagine tips will become a valuable datapoint in the Farcaster social graph. It reveals deeper relationships beyond follows, likes and recasts.

A big competitor wanted to buy Awaken ~18mo ago.

They said if we didn't sell, they'd stick a team of 50 engineers copying every single thing we did. 

They still haven't caught up...

Turns out being hungry & scared is a good motivator 🥲

Kicking Ass on Farcaster: The TOTO Way 🚽 🧵

I’ve laughed at the cock meta. We all have. But it’s time to flush that away and focus on what really matters: kicking ass on Farcaster.

Farcaster is like a high-tech Japanese toilet—it’s sleek, sophisticated, and designed to free us from the toxic wasteland that is Web 2 social. The team is literally trying to put money in your pocket through Warpcast Rewards and project Airdrops. But if your content stinks, you’re getting left behind.

Embrace the way of the TOTO 🚽

Don’t talk shit: Be constructive, not an asshole
Don’t follow shit: Curate your feed—your timeline is your responsibility
Make your own shit: Original content wins
Change your shit if it’s not working: Adapt, experiment
Don’t reply with shit: Low-effort comments fail 
Don’t know shit? Read the instructions: Farcaster has a culture—learn it
Clean up your shit: Your profile is your resume. Keep it spotless
Don’t post shit: Quality > Quantity

What a shitty thread and I mean this in the kindest way possible
