Please join the discussion, would love to hear your opinions: I'm constantly thinking about how to improve this platform for artists, collectors and art enjoyers alike. I kind of left Twitter/X for various reasons, since Musk took over and turned it into a propaganda machine. But whenever I return there for a quick update, my art feed is really top notch. Almost everybody who is active here, also posts or cross-shares frequently on X as well. But more important, a lot of artist I want to follow and I want to be informed about only post there (and maybe on Bluesky, Mastodon, IG as well, don't know). Point is, they all have a Farcaster account, but turned their backs on the platform at some point or never really got into it. I would therefore be delighted if they were to return and exploit Farcaster's potential.

I love FC and feel very much « at home » here. One thing that I find discouraging sometimes is closed channels. Especially when onboarding it can feel like you’re just a spectator. Other points are more technical: inability to upload several images, for examples. Or difficulties with some videos. Integration with rodeo is fabulous imo and could be expanded to other platforms? Overall a great « community « experience here when X feels like swimming alone in the ocean..

Agreed, particularly as relates to closed channels. There are channels where I once posted (where my posts appeared to be appreciated by the community) but that are now closed. I've asked to join a few of them and have mostly been overlooked. It's disheartening because I have so much quality curated content to share.

Thanks for tuning in and really happy to hear that you found a great community here, Rapha. We need to work on channel onboarding and I think a lot can be done without any changes needed from the Warpcast team. If you could forward me all the channels you were unable to join, I can try to reach out as well and ask them to improve their onboarding experience. I have to dig into the topic a bit and find out what the best solutions are. Get you on the technical pain points. Dan just re-iterated Farcaster is primarily text-based, so not sure they put that much effort into improving media support for now. But there might be options to build frames for that. The Rodeo "integration" is primarily the effort of the @rodeodotclub team, so kudos to them. But it's a wonderful example for the potential of the ecosystem.
