I've stated a few times that I think Elon buying Twitter messed up Farcaster's anti-censorship, anti-institution value prop and they've struggled to find their footing ever since. Culturally both are very aligned with our current technocratic overlords too so the vibes are pretty much the same which is why there's no attempt at Blusky style outreach when people bounce from X. Team has financial incentives to not ostracize themselves from all kinds of things involving Elon, which is why there's no criticism, even though X is ostensibly a competitor. Is what it is but the big question is where do they go from here? Now that they've been paid via secondary on that big raise my guess would be some kind of acquisition? From X? Coinbase?

nah im on team merkle here dan gon' yoink does anyone really want a drawn out remediation process for squatters on an extremely early training-wheels-toy of a social network that has somehow already managed to train bots to be assholes? nah. but don't forget you can still abuse the permissionless nature of farcaster handles by using an ENS name — just like @warpcastadmin.eth 😇

ok I’m team bring back Bernie Bros I think the young male needs to feel smart about something and definitely doesn’t like being shamed about anything (no one does though tbh) Bernie actually had a compelling vision for people to get behind unlike this is version of democrats which are mostly counter positioned

Yuval Noah Harari (author of Sapiens) was on @bankless a few months ago, talking about why truth is so hard to find these days. I tend to agree that the antidote to bad speech is more speech, but Harari makes a few points I keep thinking about: (Paraphrasing from memory) - we think about the time after printing press as a time of enlightenment but scams and lies spread much faster and for a long time (did he say 200 years?) - truth is expensive, hard to get to, and can be messy, inconvenient and not entertaining. Truth can hurt - lies are cheap, are entertaining, make us feel good. So of course lies will spread faster and take over social media Eventually, maybe tens or hundreds of years, I believe AI and social media will be a huge benefit to society. But today, well, we live in messy time. https://www.bankless.com/will-ai-kill-democracy-yuval-noah-harari

One of the oddest channels I discovered as a result of our clustering work back in the summer is /tb. - 697 members (not just followers!) - Very civil and well moderated. - No one I follow follows it. - Excellent mixed media content creation. - Totally bananas 🍌

We made the difficult decision to put down our sweet blue nose pitbull today after discovering an aggressive form of late stage cancer. Shuggie was our best friend, most loyal companion, and sweetest big sister. Grateful to have been gifted such a wonderful spirit. You will always be our family 🐾

Good news for Democrats in 2026 / 2028: if you run a decent candidate, people will vote (even if that means splitting a ticket).

I will repeat again: channels are about building active communities on Farcaster. They are not an asset to be "flipped".

This is my non-consensus truth, and the fact that it is non-consensus is a root cause of many of society's problems today.
