CT is good at Ponzis, but it rarely discusses how Twitter itself is a Ponzi. The faster you join this status pyramid scheme, the better off you get. When you reach 40k followers, you can tweet 'gm' and still get 172 likes. Farcaster has some of these mechanics but tries to create an alternative path with channels.

^I know that's ironic that I'm writing that, since I have 70k+ followers and even if I post something something bad I get 10 likes from Korean bots. But I know the pain of being a new user on a social network and I think 'redistribution of distribution' is a noble goal to follow.

Great framing. 1st (low hanging) fruit for FC to be more noble in this regard is improving/abolishing the auto-follow list that new users are involuntarily subscribed to

I don't know if they abolished it but it seems like I got deleted from it 😁
