Farcaster should implement a standard for combining threads into longcasts BECAUSE quality ideas expressed in text often take more than 280 characters. X allows long posts, and they are EXCELLENT. Why should I need a blog or a newsletter to communicate longer ideas in text. One network, unlimited expression.

i like linking out to a long form platform. long posts on x are only necessary bc external linking is punished with deboosting (long tweet reading experience is not great.) also casts can disappear if storage limit is hit so if i'm writing an essay, i prefer it to be archived more permanently somewhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You're right about longtweets being boosted bc external links are punished, but I do not like linking out to anywhere nor see a good reason for it. Farcaster's twitter envy arbitrarily constrains this unicode publishing protocol to short form. I should not have to use a centralized platform to share longer strings.
