gm. my farcaster feed is beginning to resemble twitter, and not in a good way. squabbling, posturing, and misinformation abound, none of it funny, some of it dangerous. i won't help with that. so, instead of unfollowing anyone specifically, i've made the choice to reset my follows and exit most channels. I'll meander my way back to the channels I use and people I cherish over the coming days and weeks. Find me in the arena, as ever.

See you soon 🎩🌹

politics

I kinda noticed that too. Was enjoying knocking around Silverback a little but pretty much screwed my algorithm. Unfollowed him and left /politics and it's been much nicer. 0xen may be next on the block but I can't recall if he's posted anything political lately.

No lol. Maybe we need a bipartisan channel for moderates instead of ride or die rightists/leftists

politics is a natural subject to talk about; it's hugely important, especially to americans who comprise most of farcaster. we need a safe place to discuss our values, of course.

that being said, the last ten years has not been good for political discourse or civil society, especially online, and evidentiary standards don't exist in the era of fire-hose untruth. Reasonable people need a place to talk about complex problem without partisan non-sense, free from rage-baiting trolls.

that's probably not /politics channel lol
