Decided today that we’re not going to be working on /nook anymore. It was originally meant for us to play around with and learn new tech and has served that purpose. We don’t really see a path forward in continuing to build the client, so we’re going to explore some non-Farcaster ideas instead. More soon!

props for shipping quick and making hard decisions how has building a client affected your opinion of farcaster? did you consider other revenue streams on top of nook (outside of sign ups?) i'm sure a lot of fc builders would benefit a ton from your insights!

Farcaster is a place for side projects right now, not serious companies. Maybe will change in a few years. But I don’t believe we will ever see another client compete with Warpcast, which makes it all the less interesting to me with the lack of client decentralization.

disagree I think clients will manage to compete, but it's going to take a strong team with funding + patience, a differentiated beachhead, and possibly an existing user base (ex: zora/metamask/... add a farcaster client interface). Unfortunately builders underestimate the difficulty of getting DAUs (myself included)

I was thinking this “different beachhead” thought yesterday but then questioned myself since Warpcast already struggles to get the initial crypto beachhead
