If you don’t like the “make money” consumer value prop for Farcaster—what do you think is better?

Reply with a suggestion and rationale. 

Like replies that resonate.

I’m here for the decentralization and to socialize with the kind of people that think it’s important.

I think cultural tools are probably the most attractive possibility, but I don’t have a suggestion. Stuff like NFT gated spaces or something where ppl can sell tickets.

I don’t think money is a good incentive for users in a social network, but it is for builders.

Do you really think you can represent every consumer who wants to use Warpcast? Isn't this just an opinion from a "great builder’s" perspective?

Many builders think this way. However, crypto users are often quicker than you think when it comes to choosing what benefits them the most.
benefit" doesn’t just refer to financial gains, it also includes user experience and entertainment.
Even the builders shaping Warpcast hold these views ; do you really think the users don’t see it?

Unless you’re launching a groundbreaking product that naturally pulls users in, the idea that Warpcast should solely support the builder ecosystem is just stealing from its own opportunity cost. 
Will builders really take responsibility for this voluntarily? It just looks like factionalism and a scramble for the pie.

But realistically, wouldn’t such a game-changing product emerge on Solana instead at this point? haha

Huh? No. I think incentivizing users w money can hide actual pmf and it can disappear when the funding stops. Otoh incentivizing building creates new apps/use cases which may create value for the users which remains.
