Thought experiment. Seems like dissatisfaction with X is increasing again. (Not surprisingly as we are in an election cycle) But let’s pretend X was built on top of Farcaster. People unhappy could leave and use a different client, without losing their followers or their content. What would that look like? What would actually happen? Would there be alt clients that people would actually migrate to? Would X be worried about losing market share and work to keep people around? Or would people just stay on X and complain?

Would really depend on if you could motivate a large enough cohort to leave together to the same place to have a similar experience to what they have on X. So, if you are a big fan of news accounts or sports teams, influencers, etc. You want to see your in-group and any community adjacent groups to leave with you. That's why Threads was so interesting since there was already a preexisting community based on your insta followers there waiting for you.
