Farcaster

I just made the same post on Farcaster (184 followers at time of post), Facebook (67,000 followers) and Threads (5,515 followers). After 1-2 hours:

Farcaster= 8 replies / 24 Likes

My actual reach on those platforms is just the tip of the Zuckerberg

@rskagy.eth mentioned Farcaster to me when corresponding about a charity he built. That was four days ago and the first time I heard of it.

did you get invited to farcaster or did you stumble upon it by yourself?

A battalion of people who see my posts is worth more than a planet of people who don’t

oh dang! here i was biting my fingernails worried you might find this place too small 🙃

We definitely need better bot filtering (& the powerbadge is a good v1 solution), but we are still leagues ahead of Twitter in stopping bots in your notification tray. Still surprising how earnest ppl still are here, even after a year.

Well some of those are bits here on farcaster. 

But there is good interactions here and I hope you stay around!

Because I suspected Twitter would get low engagement too. ALL other platforms punish you for low-engagement posts and demote your future organic reach. I didn’t want to offend my invisible Twitter credit score.

What’s interesting is speculating WHY the post had low reach elsewhere—

I’d go to more effort to do a full body photo holding the props if I wanted the recommendation engines to like me elsewhere. Those platforms are back-end comparing me with a predictive machine-learning AI to similar posts, and know that the posts with faces get higher click-through rate.

Those platforms also Optical Character Recognize text in photos, and valuable brand keywords (like Cortizone) get specific organic reach *demotion* because they want advertisers to bid for reach against brand keywords. Limiting “free” reach inflates the keyword value of their ad marketplaces. 

There are a dozen other reasons a centralized, engagement optimized, ad driven feed demotes a post like that— but I’m out of space 😆

Curious why you left out twitter, the only contestant that’s actually alive in the mix 💀

Hopefully Farcaster is crashing through your veins like…

I'd agree it's better when you've got something to discuss if the audience is here for it. Only issue is there's still a lot of bot replies fishing for degen tips.

I love that! Do you ever post on instagram or TikTok as well? I know they are more video forward but that might be interesting to compare as well. Happy to have you here - welcome!

I'm glad you are liking it here! 5 $degen
