let's talk about some of the weaknesses of farcaster:
1. there are huge power laws to follower distribution based on if you were here early
2. a lot of followers seem not to be real or are totally inactive
3. a lot of content and conversation is crypto heavy
4. there's much financialization of interactions
what else?

The only problem is externality pricing.

Fully agree with all four. Some additional things that I've observed as a new Farcaster user:

5. Slow loads or timeouts happen frequently
6. Lack of robust, thought-through incentives. The current environment favors bots, spam comments, irrelevant posts like "x $degen"... over quality content.
7. Like @andrei0x309 says, most people just use Warpcast, not Farcaster. Everything ends up centralized and in the hands of a few developers, quite contrary to the Farcaster vision.
