Props to the Farcaster team for trying something new here. But who is this for? Farcaster already has a reputation for being small and insular. Let’s be real, there still aren’t too many of us here. People on here are practically begging the Farcaster team to put more resources towards marketing to bring in new users, but so far it hasn’t really happened. I know this new reward algo adjusts for follower count and tries to give smaller accounts a fighting chance. That’s great, but easier said than done. Leaderboard systems like this tend to devolve into popularity contests that end up rewarding people who already have strong numbers. I would like to see the ecosystem grow, so I hope I’m wrong. Hopefully the Farcaster team is able to thread the needle and use this as an opportunity to start bringing in and promoting some fresh faces

This is probably the most important question for the long-term health and sustainability of Farcaster: how can it achieve meaningful decentralization if there's one extremely dominant client (Warpcast)? Without client decentralization Farcaster risks going the route of web2 social apps that started off with an open ethos but grew more centralized over time. And to achieve client decentralization there needs to be real incentives and opportunities for alt-client builders, which don't really exist today. Great discussion about this from @df @stephancill and others

Escanaba is a track off of Billy Strings’ latest album, released about a month ago It’s one of his rare tracks that does not have any vocals - just four and a half minutes of string instruments But Billy has the rare gift of being able to tell a full story with just an acoustic guitar https://open.spotify.com/track/0TR6IW2Wk8NQCAsU0ecAc7?si=30cf0a8bdf424c95

Nirvana, The Waterfall “I went to Yosemite National Park, and I saw some huge waterfalls. The highest one there is 1,340 feet high, and from it the water comes down like a curtain thrown from the top of the mountain. It does not seem to come down swiftly, as you might expect; it seems to come down very slowly because of the distance. And the water does not come down as one stream, but it is separated into many tiny streams. From a distance, it looks like a curtain. And I thought it must be a very difficult experience for each drop of water to come down from the top of such a high mountain. It takes time, you know, a long time, for the water finally to reach the bottom of the waterfall. And it seems to me that our human life may be like this.” Zen Mind, Beginner’s Mind by Shunryu Suzuki
