SlowCoLab

imagine a farcaster client that encourages healthy scrolling and chatting with friends. it offers a meditation break if you scroll for more than 10 minutes or reminds you to connect with someone new each week.

we need more thoughtful social clients that encourage healthy use at the front, not as an afterthought.

Farcaster doesn’t yet have truly slowcore-friendly places for deep-dive leisurely discussions. 

Ideally we'd have places to gather where we’re not algorithmically or socially penalized for our slowness. 

That’s just table stakes, though. 

We also need places that *facilitate* and even *celebrate* slow culture.

Sounds great. Since we're right on the cusp of big changes for channels, it's a good time for a slowcore movement to be gaining ground. 

If there are any devs out there who are already working on this kind of client, this could be just the kind of encouragement they need.
