Pain Points

tried explaining farcaster to a normie and they immediately turned their attention to privacy concerns.

they didn’t want their likes and follows publicly visible.

what’s the current state of the conversation around this?

it's definitely a trade-off.

on the one hand, it can feel weird to have data be public if you didn't understand it would be at first.

on the other hand, the openness is what allows for different (and I would argue better) kinds of apps to be built.

I think the answer is to remind users early and often what's public.
