I've been thinking a lot about the community's allergic reaction to last week's AMA. Clearly, there was a culture clash. Robin came in with a negative tone and voiced complaints, which people don't like (hello mood affiliation). He also didn't genuflect to crypto to try and make us like him, although it would have been easy to do that. And many people's responses were: ok boomer, go somewhere else. But what if Robin just happens to be the only one to say what others are thinking? He is active on Twitter and has been blogging for nearly two decades, so it wasn't purely a technology issue. What can we learn?

I enjoyed it! But to be fair, the whole thread *was* like a text exchange with your boomer dad: + responses come off as curt or unfeeling (but they are actually just being as direct as possible bc they hate typing) + zero concern about making anything feel reciprocal + can't see the screen without glasses

I thought it was great (aside from the tone of the content) Very telling, and honestly very reflective of a lot of people's reactions today

This is also generally the response from the site itself about complaints. Revealed vs stated and all that. 🤷🏼‍♀️ He mentioned things I have seen people like @nicholas bring up too. A lot of what he said wasn’t even novel feedback. I mostly saw people kind of excited or amused about his crypto stance. On that regard I think people here can take it. Might be cope from me though

i think he's an outstanding person to take feedback seriously from; one of the ones who's self-selected out of using this app.

he had good points, many that I agree with (I don't see crypto as the key enabler of any of my ideas), but I think the larger outcry came once the cuckoldry piece came to light.

His honesty was such a breath of fresh air. Way too much glazing these days

Also I’ll add as a reply. I think the people who celebrate his departure or the fact he didn’t like it here. Are part of the problem and also contribute to the “lack of interesting content” problem. https://warpcast.com/grit/0x371323f8

I thought it was the most entertaining and healthy book AMA so far. Constructive feedback is good. Matter of fact responses are also fine. It did bring up questions like what kind of expectation setting do you do for non-crypto people? And should you seek out authors who have a genuine interest in the platform and connecting with this audience? He seems sufficiently online so I don’t think he’s unaware of dunking… Was the whole thing a missed opportunity? Maybe. Did it provide the platform with engaging content? Yes.

I like it: sharing his perspective, which is not usually what we see in our little crypto echo chambers is valuable for us to learn n improve. We should be strong enough to accept those feedbacks

as per dan, new users come and go all the time. WC for the most part only cares about big accounts. so this is maybe important because it's one of the first big influencers to be underwhelmed and leave
