Doesn’t better content come with more users? Is this a check and egg problem

In my experience, not always. The average user does not always contribute meaningfully nor do they always have a honed compass for "better content". Most of the time, it is the inverse. Dopamine drive dictates lazy content usually wins. And FC's audience is distinctly different to those of X, Reddit, Instagram etc.

Why is everybody the goal? Have you seen what the average person does and posts on social media? It's not beneficial nor is it feasible to onboard everybody to FC. Online communities are about catering to niches.

Some people are ardently against crypto or just not interested. And that's fine. There are over 8 billion people on the planet - that's a lot of variables. Are you *sure* everyone wants to be on FC? The key to onboarding more people is to build frictionless onchain products and services. Allowing people interact with the blockchain without fully realising it, and certainly not experiencing the whole gamut of pain points that exist rn.

>people should use blockchain without knowing Disagree, people should know that Bitcoin and blockchain is special because it allows them to have free speech. It allows them to have control of their money without a bank freezing and seizing their assets. We need to stop treating each other like invalids. Humans are smart.

I said "without fully knowing". I believe this because crypto has a wide range of painful and semi-broken processes and platforms. It is far from perfect, and much of it is barely at MVP level. It's a maze of convoluted processes and jargon, riddled with bad actors, that often catches even the most experienced people off guard. I do agree with your ideological views. And while "intelligence" can be measured in numerous ways, I don't think we can generally say humans are smart. At least compared to the ways I think they need to be in a rapidly changing world, and particularly if you view intelligence via a normal distribution model (AKA a bell curve). Humans are fallible, and do dumb and destructive things all the time. Things that are objectively against their best interests. In my experience, most humans are of average-to-slightly below average intelligence.
