Farcaster

Curious how the community delineates Farcaster from being an X replacement versus being an augmented social media that connects people deeper than the town halls of X ever can. 

As such, perhaps farcaster does not need to migrate people from X, as these things can co exist and it’s probably better for FC to be differentiated anyway. ( I believe @dwr.eth has said this before too).

As a medium level user, hoping to be more active, here is what I would like to think of it as:

X is the theatre, it’s the hustle & bustle of news. Farcaster is the home, it’s where we come to process the news 

If Farcaster can achieve the latter, it will be the reason crypto succeeds because we need more intimate spaces to share ideas, visions, code to offset this industry from resorting to sensationalism and hyper fixating on the people who have already been successful versus the smaller builders who will carry the torch for the next let.

lore @optimism | ex: @coinbase | views are my own | what if it all worked out? 

I barely used X, so I weirdly have no basis for comparison. But at the moment, the primary difference I see is that the community is still small and populated by people who _want_ to be here. So the discussion is a little different. 

It's also way more focused on crypto, despite being billed as a general social platform.
