Hey Nigel, long time! Love that you chimed in on the Twitter thread.

It’s a tough pill for them to swallow, but the truth is nobody in web3 wants to touch that ecosystem with a 10 foot pole.

Seems that most of the “benefits” are DeSo specific copies of what exists elsewhere

Feels like that’s a question he should be trying to answer himself. I think there are 2 parts to the answer (1) bitclout pretty much alienated CT, and (2) the overt monetization was an interesting experiment but a complete failure.

Certainly a trend - one of the things I really respect about FC is the emphasis on a high quality consumer app vs outsourcing the front end to “the devs”

imo too many protocol projects want 3rd party devs to bring users to them and not other way around.

perl.xyz is your onchain social arcade, powered by $DEGEN. Join the discussion at /perl

Because the value is in the network >>>> than it is the technology. 

You could probably create a Cosmos based blockchain to replicate DeSo with moderate effort. But you could NOT build an audience/network without literally years of grinding.

My take is, his third bullet answers the question.

not a fan of deso tbh - fundamentally missed the praxeological point of web3

I’m concerned about Deso putting social data on chain - FC Hubs are much more protective (and supports deletion natively, I assume) compared to Deso which nothing can ever really be deleted
