Farcaster is unique out of all the alt-socials because it caters to the very small slice of folks who think Elon’s doing a Great Job with X and also for some reason want an alternative The other platforms can leverage disgust for what X has become for growth

imho, disgust in something far away is a recent luxury that we don't necessarily appreciate enough. the best social networks probably learn what a disgust/rage-bound local optima looks like, and steers away into more celebratory/imaginative vibes.

Tbh I’m not sure disgust is right word either. Even if no disgust these ppl feel that harm of X outweighs benefit I think of social like a town square We don’t want screaming, horrible violence in our towns I think the calls for it in our digital towns “FC too nice” are childish

"FC too nice" is not just childish calls for more dunks. IMO it's a Minnesota Nice critique. Quoting Wiki: although Minnesota has one of the highest qualities of life of any state, its disparities for quality of life, health, income [...] between White Minnesotans and minority groups [...] is further ironic.

So are you saying it’s fake nice here and people are mad because the niceness is not real? I always interpreted calls for incivility as nothing more than “it’s entertaining to watch fights. Because no one fights, it is boring, and by extension less sticky than competitors”

Hyper-sensitivity to conflict is reactionary trauma from X. I do want cheers for building (b/c building is hard), but also want someone to care enough about my project to tell me it sucks (and how it can improve).
