checked out @jam this morning. collecting casts in the context of a cast type interface is the key differentiator for me vs. alternatives that take the approach of send-cast-image-to-platforms for minting (on a random contract, w/out the oc's consent 💀). 

imo creator agency + context is everything.

It's a huge difference. As implemented on Jam, it's easy to imagine how tipping will pivot from vouchers to direct value transfers.

Hot take: Buying @jam casts is a better way to reward creators than offchain degen tips.

(change my mind lol)

I don't see how jam brings anything useful. You have to purposefully move away from warpcast to go on jam to "buy" a cast which in itself feels unnecessary. Having everything stay on warpcast is the ideal imo. Jam, drakula, rekt all seems like useless things moving people away from one central location.

For me, the issue is if I am interested in interacting with different fields. Having everything in one place is a good thing imo. Being interested in let's say 5 different things means I'm gonna have to be on warpcast and 5 more clients/interfaces. That sounds like a nightmare for me.

Interesting take. Be aware, client diversity is hugely important, more clients are coming, and the experience will change.

If you prefer Warpcast, use that. All good.

But it isn't the only client, even if it is the most important. Making the UX more centralized is... not the direction any of this is heading.

I agree on that with blockchains, yes, decentralization is good, but when it comes to warpcast and jam/others it just creates more friction to a product. If I'm interested in multitude of things, now I have to run warpcast and like 4-5 other interfaces to get everything. I don't think many will want to do that.

Moving away from one central location is why we built blockchains as the infrastructure for the next web in the first place.

More clients don't devalue existing ones. Jam frees Warpcast up to focus on being the best version of itself without the need for redundant content.

Disagree. A central location had to please the masses. At the end it will only work for the few. 

Different clients for different niches make it easier for subgroups to form

We are in a weird User Experience phase right now. Where most of these experiences have the minimum viability. I think things will spread out horizontally and then vertically suddenly￼￼

For jam I reason with you

But you see drakula has a different value preposition and users can build utility there

1 If warpcaster is down we can still use jam to get information.
2 Jam can have different recommendation algorithms.
