Like many others I saw this viral thread from a long-time user lamenting the destruction of Twitter as it as morphed into “X.” I owe Twitter a lot in terms of connections and my career but it has become a truly unpleasant place to spend time and I doubt I would’ve had the same process of discovery again if I was starting out as a young person there. There needs to be a replacement and I don’t think it’d be hard for Warpcaster to become one. Perhaps I’m a little biased because I’ve already started using it and enjoying it but this is really the chance to start pitching the platform as an alternative for people who want to recreate the magic of what Twitter was before it become a optimization machine with an internal culture verging on a neo-Nazi rally.

So many of us feel the same! One of my motivations for organizing the farcaster /writinghackathon was to create a ton of Farcaster content we can share on X as invitations to check this place out. Still have to go thru all the submissions and start sharing them… More info if interested: https://paragraph.xyz/@adrienne/farcaster-writing-hackathon

curious, how did you hear about Farcaster yourself for the first time? Did it take you a long time to actually start using Warpcast?

who else LOVES that new twitter feature where the millisecond your video stops playing you're blasted with another one that's completely unrelated (it's obvious that every move that's been made after elmo takeover is to improve (useless) metrics and not make the experience better for the user.

It’s interesting that as “AI experts” flocked to Twitter - the SNR really got out of wack. I’ve been scanning it more the past few days and it’s not very good for what I used to utilize it for (finding new protocols, learning). I migrated to Farcaster in Dec 2023 and haven’t looked back

I'm by no means a twitter OG, mostly saw it as a self-filtering news pipeline (anything worth reading propagates to other feeds anyway). imho shortform social media has tried to tap into the total possible base, but twitter only had several hundred million monetizable users at best (sounds impressive enough to many, I'm sure). with the right avenue for casual expression & the right buffer for offensive content, there should be several billions of people that qualify as eventual community members (even w/ some form of dunking/ratio, but those can be further refined w/ constraints)
