Farcaster

this bot-liking scandal has me wondering, once again, whether we've got this whole social media thing wrong

i really liked farcaster 6+ months ago. the scenius was palpable. not that i'm against letting new people in, but now it feels more like we're back to the standard social media - strangers one-upping themselves

It's a handful of accounts? Mute them and it's not an issue. :)

sure, but like i said, in general it feels like the scenius has ended.

@adrienne gives a good overview here

what's the TLDR for the 'scenius' idea? I know it comes from @adrienne, but I've only ever seen the term thrown around without explanation.

Plenty of people still treating it like a group chat!
