Farcaster

1. You can always build / use your own client. This means you can guarantee you’ll never see an ad.

2. Warpcast has no plans for ads. We will mostly likely explore a subscription at some point in the future.

3. Average person is fine with free with ads. That’s why it’s the most popular business model on the internet.

4. In fact, if you were sophisticated enough, a client could use free with ads to onboard users for free, and outcompete Warpcast for new sign ups if you believe that storage fees are the primary thing holding back the protocol.

As I shifted from ChatGPT to Claude Sonnet, I hit their Premium limits. So for the past couple weeks I've been talking directly to the API (which is somehow cheaper than Premium) via LibreChat, an open source Chatbot UI that works with every chat AI API. 

It would be interesting to see someone build a generic self-hosted UI like this for Farcaster, with an open plugin architecture perhaps.

I wonder if it would behove someone like @neynar or @a16z/@paradigm to build or fund a barebones Farcaster client with a plugins architecture, aimed at people ready to locally host an interface. Unleash a bunch of low effort Farcaster mods for people in the know.
