I do genuinely miss the small town hall feeling of twitter years ago, where you could post to friends and the adjacent void and interesting ideas would find you. I like Farcaster because my account presence here feels small in that same way, but I think we’re headed toward Balkanization of the internet and dwindling find the others energy no matter what.

It is actually small here.

Balkanization is happening for sure, but it might not be a bad thing. As you say, maybe different apps also reflect a different part of you, so you choose to post some things here, other things there. A person is also not one island but a manyfold.

I think if we figure out reliable decentralized social graphs and public and private channels we have a shot.
