Warpcast needs more content. That’s not a technical problem it’s a human problem — you just need more people naturally using the platform from all walks of life. They may be people you like or dislike but they and their interactions with each other make up the culture of the platform. The technical infrastructure is just like the physical infrastructure of a city, it’s there to facilitate what the people who choose to live there do. I never used the Twitter competitors like Bluesky because they just seemed to be the exact same thing as Twitter but intended to create an ideological ghetto for people who felt uncomfortable there. I prefer a messy mix of ideologies, cultures, and politics because that’s more fun and more intellectually challenging. Warpcast is worth migrating because unlike Bluesky it’s genuinely a different and superior interface for interacting with people. Now it just needs the people and I think it naturally would take off and become a mass platform if that is the goal.

Thanks! The challenge is very few people who already have audiences on Twitter want to switch (sunk cost). So you have to market to people not on Twitter...who would be good at Twitter. :)

Warpcast can’t have more ppl in here without: - better basic features - better tools for creators - a (marketing) strategy to get cool ppl through the door Sadly, the team feels they only need tech ppl AND that they can fill any mkt/bd position (how deep this hits for ego/bias? 😅) ngmi for the moment, strategy needs a reset

I think you’re right, but I think the concentration of crypto-native and -adjacent people is a limiter of adoption I’m guilty of adding to the problem as increasingly I participate in cozy chats rather than social media

I'm a writer who stumbled into Farcaster and immediately saw the potential for all sorts of creators to benefit from the attention economy here. Instead of catering to algorithms as elsewhere.

I think Farcaster shines when it feels like an asynchronous public group chat. Channels felt great early on because there were few of them. Now they have been spread too thin so it's hard for a channel to get enough conversational liquidity given the size of the user base and challenges in discoverability. It's a great foundation to build on though.

The more we build on @farcaster the more I feel ppl have not fully appreciated what a permissionless open social graph protocol can achieve. There is so much more available for ppl to build & users to interact than Twitter. We just to need to build more product utilizing strength of farcaster.

The problem is, all the feeds comes 99% from power users. Non-power users arent getting any engagements. This isnt organic. Small users should also can be seen by the public. Warpcast wont make it to the mainstream media if they keep giving 99% of feeds to power users only.

It’s hard making content to people who think music should be free when it took years, training, and $$$$$ to have the tools to create and grow in music. Also the user design is not video friendly as drakula The tech and opportunities are just regurgitated and it’s dry on here

I'm sharing bits of information and photos of building a new house in a small Florida downtown. This house is special to me as my wife, a licensed architect, has designed it. This will be our first home ever living within the city limits. We both grew up in rural unincorporated areas.

I would love to see warpcast team push the non crypto content. I was talking to a few friends who were on warpcaste and left because it's heavily ( Dev/crypto ) talks and content I think the majority of people don't come to farcaster because they can't understand or keep up with the content here The only things that makes me stay are folks answering my endless questions just to understand most of the content here
