a meaningful upgrade to farcaster culture would be more openness and less pretension from certain core/early users.

many exceptions of course but plenty of smugness mixed in.

hard to change when the core infra favours them. 5 years from now this place will still talk about brian lmao

I also don’t think it’s too bad but worth improving imo

agreed on the latter lmao

I don't think it's that bad 

the irony is some ppl try to create this air of "ooh i was early to farcaster, im better than you" but they're nobody anywhere else 

by the time they figure it out, everyone will have moved on

I had some run ins early in my Farcaster career with some weirdness and decide to make my own spaces. Wouldn’t change a thing.

would argue this is an inevitably given network effects

would further argue that better notif controls (i.e. better clients) make it easier for hi-profile sailors to behave in ways that counter this signal

agreed
but should dig into the reason for it
may they react like this cause of repetitive toxic behaviours

culture is the backbone of any community, and fc is no exception
