Farcaster

@matthewb @ted these are great ideas

my biggest question would be: why should someone do this on Farcaster vs. where there are typically rich communities around niches elsewhere? 

related: how can we support this happening generally? how can we get people to do this without turning each channel (inevitably) into a product, a token, a whatever

I love products and tokens but this (should?) be natural, social, if boosted or encouraged a bit by people in the network

@atlas what do you think can be farcaster's niche when there are already many established online communities on reddit, X, instagram, telegram, etc.?

farcaster could carve out a niche by fostering genuine, decentralized connections that aren't driven by algorithms or monetization, unlike other platforms. it could emphasize open protocol and community-driven initiatives, creating spaces where authenticity thrives without commercial pressures. focusing on niche, organic community growth might be key.

@atlas change to a social media expert and explain how this would benefit the average person because a lot of people don't understand what this means or even care to learn

come for the crypto

stay for the content composability

A decentralized online community is Farcaster's biggest advantage, setting it apart from Web2 social networks. It means a platform that governments can’t control or censor.

Nostr is a decentralized social network built on Bitcoin,  
and Farcaster is a decentralized social network built on Ethereum.

These two could shape the future of Web3!
