Farcaster

my two cents and in-good-faith interpretation of "not enough interesting content":

@dwr.eth DOES NOT mean that current users aren't interesting enough

@dwr.eth DOES mean that there are not enough of us so that the supply of interesting content on warpcast simply cannot compete with the supply on other platforms

/ted | exploring the onchain frontier | surfing @ venice, ca | eating @ gjusta / gjelina

I hope this is the correct interpretation. It feels shitty to see this rhetoric over and over when so many of us are trying our best.

seriously. its super frustrating & at the same time insulting -- especially when most of us spend all of our time here

it isn’t intended to be an insult to the users, but to the network and its growth (so more of a self-critique). 

even if every cast here is a banger — 100% bangers — it would still only be a fraction of twitter’s bangers based on volume alone.

it’s a nuanced take that needs more specificity, as admitted.

We should make a poll and see how people feel. I think you’d be surprised how many people read this comment, and the many more before it, as an insult to the user base, not the product.

Poll made without context as a Q/A to gauge people’s reactions. 

This isn’t a one time statement, it’s a reoccurring theme along with slop and some other interesting word choices. 

It makes people feel a certain way. The comments in the thread are telling and that’s mainly the folks who are prepared to speak up.

is it more productive to:

1. gauge feelings based on the (inaccurate) interpretation of a poorly worded statement (which we know are negative)

OR

2. clarify and better word the statement so it accurately reflects the intent and then see how people feel?

The road the hell is paved with good intentions. People won’t remember your exact words. They will remember how you made them feel. 

And people feel like shit right now.

the poll is quite interesting— i think it gauges legit sentiment— and they really should listen
