Some ramblings:
Was bopping around Italy for the last 10 days, and I only checked WC a few times. Before traveling I was checking 10 times a day or so.
Is this a good or a bad thing? Should the WC feed be more addictive or is it actually a feature that the client is not so addictive?
Centralized social media is incentivized to make their product extremely addictive, because at the end of the day - share price MUST go up. I know Merkle has similar incentives due to private investors, and the fact that social networks must grow to be successful - but it definitely experiences less of this pressure compared to META, SNAP, etc…
Maybe slow qDAU growth is a feature not a bug. 15 years from now, I’d like to confidently encourage my children to use a client on Farcaster not Instagram, assuming it continues down the same path.
Maybe sometimes, slow acceleration builds a product that is much more meaningful, lawful, and lasting than the alternative. Just zoom out.
Maybe an opportunity for a new client? 10 replies
