The @livecaster hypothesis is simple.

When participating in live events on Farcaster you want the latest casts immediately.

No refreshes, no “see more”, no scrolling.

It’s never going to be a full fledged client. It’s a mini client focused on one thing: live casting. Chat interface is perfect for that.

Why not just use DCs? Because this makes the conversation discoverable, public, and archivable.

Livecaster exists in the space between channels and DCs. Communities coming together for an ephemeral moment on the timeline.

Manually curated right now by me

1. I have to build the functionality to automatically to attach to any cast + then build a “lobby”

2. I’m making sure the core experience is enjoyable and the chat quality remains high

I love it, been trying to think of an event to live cast! 🤔 

How do you start one? It seems like I can only sign into the one that is currently live?
