A boy has got his 100k followers LinkedIn banned and the LinkedIn even disclose the reason why. I know that this guy is kinda cheating with AI content, by the point is — it could be anything else, and the platform wont tell u. Thats why we need decentralized media. We need clarity and transparency in the rules of the platform. So it will be take or leave it. Running a media business and stay independent now is hard. But the ways are: 1) build a website and host it. 2) run a newsletter. You own the audience. Thats crucial. And u can leave. 3) sign up for web3 social media

Probably old thread, but I like it 1. First job: factory worker 2. College degree: not even bachelor, but technical service for cars 3. Fave non work hobby: history 4. Introvert or Extrovert: extrovert, but because Im autistic I easily burn out and behave like a total introvert.

How do u grow on farcaster? I dont even understand the meaning of GM, but I love the idea of decentralized media and fight against centralized censorship on facebook, instagram and LinkedIn. I understand probably 50% of the feed, by followinf the coolest VCs, but other stuff in crypto, im like “what the hell does it mean…”

Meta company is the true Evil Corp from Mr.robot series. Evil Corp is the company that will do anything for the profit, no principles and values. Thats why they’ve got unbanned instagram in Turkey. They agreed to put censorship in the feed of hundreds of people. Zuckerberg who stands for open source in AI is a joke for me, as he cant even stand for what he agreed on earlier. He sold his values

Its awesome to see how farcaster gives life to kinda of software, which was recently killed by corporate networks like Twitter, Reddit and others. For those = all separate clients were killed by raising costs on API Farcaster as an open source already helped many clients to grow. I just saw farcaster for professionals and teams, there is a search engine, product hunt altnernative. So cool to see its growth

What do u see? I see a playbook on “How not to monetize social network” and Twitter absolutely won it. - limiting content creation with editing, monetization features only for paid subs - making a verification a paid product, not an achievement and the sign of trust. Bunch of spammers constantly bomb my Dm and all of them verified with blue little thing…. Imagine if Substack and Beehiiv charged folks for an opportunity to run a newsletter.

As for ADHDer it's very hard for me to read. I can't pay attention to the book. But this is different. I love what @cdixon.eth wrote. I dont agree with every thesis according to the future of social media, but cant argue that today’s web is so broken, that it must be destroyed. We need to build a new internet. And farcaster will be a part of it.

I believe Farcaster could be a social media of a new era. Not Boring Newsletter emphasized me to cast this. The last week letter was totally about how wrong the internet became with dominance of big tech and pursue of algorythms. In my opinion Farcaster could be on the top of the hill. And they need to do (or don't) these things: 1) Don't match slop content (which flooded twitter and linkedin for a while) with algorythms. People know how to win the game there with algorythms. So good content can't win, just by being good. Same phrases used to catch attention: 5 lessons I learned, 5 tools I use, Here is what I found. That's a dogshit, not a content, which should be viral. 2) Revenue sharing and reward program for creators. Neither Facebook, Instagram or Twitter don't share any revenue. They're obviously overhired, because of the system they've created, they can't loose revenue. They need to optimize for that. Don't go this way. Probably more, but 2 things for now.

How to switch from service-based business (aka solo consulting) to product-led business (aka software product)? I previously was a Product Manager, but it wasn't for me. I wanted to build a product, but three times I failed and returned to my job, cuz cash was burned. I don't want to come back to 9 to 5, and I hate operational business, when u constantly work by hands and fight for every client, cuz basically everybody can start a consulting business. How did u fix that?

Consuming content and creating it are two different paths, which cant go along the way. Youre either a creator and spend a lot of time with content planning and writing. Or you’re full time contributor at at job and have energy to read only others’ content.

Its my letter of hope to makers of web3 media. Dont spoil it. Dont make it next twitter or linkedin. We should go our own way. The way of not putting people into algorithmic loop. thanks

Are there any other social aggregators? I know about Phaver (looks awesome but not intuitive as Firefly. Firefly (using it right now) Yup (poorly and unlogical design) Common cons: no support for specific media of my choice, and no logic in choosing ones. Why no Mastodon?

Would u rather have free product with ads, or pay for that and no ads? Its hard. I just saw the leak about unskippable ads on instagram. So horrible. Even if u want to scroll through that, that wont be possible. I would prefer to pay for instagram alternative and never see any ads. Drop a like if u hate ads too
