I joined the Farcaster team last week with the focus on growing the developer ecosystem so wanted to share my perspective. I've gotten feedback from 100+ builders on Farcaster (thank you for sharing with me!) and the #1 pain point by a long shot was needing more DAUs on Farcaster (also #1 issue we had with Bountycaster). Growing DAUs drives what we prioritize at Farcaster

With a lean team, there's limited resources and we can't build everything. Growing the developer ecosystem means creating a place where devs are able to have meaningful usage for what they build and if they choose, be able to build sustainable businesses. This is ultimately how to get a flywheel going of new devs and users coming into the ecosystem. It's also making sure devs have the proper tools and resources they need to build!

Feels like a chicken and the egg situation. No doubt you’ve got the right team to figure it out though.
