ted (not lasso)

my two cents and in-good-faith interpretation of "not enough interesting content": @dwr.eth DOES NOT mean that current users aren't interesting enough @dwr.eth DOES mean that there are not enough of us so that the supply of interesting content on warpcast simply cannot compete with the supply on other platforms

Yes, should have been more specific. So that's on me. One way to model a good portion of my casts are they are sent between chasing my children around the house (trying to prevent further "creative" destruction).

One reason for lack of interesting content is that a lot of group discussions have moved to DCs. With the new channels direction, maybe more of those convos will happen out in public.

if that’s the case then there should be bigger changes to the growth tactics to try to grow the network

There is more interesting content now than there was a year ago though and that's progress

No short form video is sadly probably a big bottleneck. I understand how hard and expensive it is to do though

Curious what defines interesting content. Twitter is a war zone, most of the time makes me v anxious.

yep, also we have a unique group of users here that is builder/creator first, often i see the focus here is on long term thinking which i personally find incredibly valuable/high signal reality is a lot of ppl on other apps are interested in short term news, events, etc - that doesn’t mean that many of us here aren’t, we just maybe aren’t AS focused on those things as users of other apps, and we don’t have a ton of curation of that type of content likely bc of that i think fc can win in both areas, rn it feels more like home to highly curious long term thinkers

I know for a fact that heaps of artists left because they’d get next to no interaction on their casts. If FC wants artists to come back, they need to up their visibility. Artists are great users because they show up everyday and cast a lot of quality work.

I think content is the secondary reason people come here. I don’t come here for content. I come here for people. Warpcast should be focusing more on social networking and less on social media imo. I don’t go to Facebook for content either. But I still use it everyday.

doesn’t this touch on the video thing tho? I love it here but most of the most viral social content is video, objectively

If that's true, why don't I spend any significant time on other platforms anymore? There's more than enough things that interest me here - I found more things today. But I came here for the people (thanks, @statuette) - and I've stayed for them. A lot of the folks I used to interact with on Twitter? They're here, too. What is it Dan thinks we're lacking? Celebrity drama? Trench snuff videos from Ukraine? Red hat/Blue hat rage fests? Fake news? I'm happy I DON'T see that stuff here. I get cats, memes, poetry, philosophy, reading reccos, art, photos, a flawed-but-trying-and-iteratively-evolving micropayment ecosystem... that's plenty of content for me. @maretus.eth nailed it - it's not the content; it's the current lopsided class structure Just my 200 $DEGEN 🙂

I hope this is the correct interpretation. It feels shitty to see this rhetoric over and over when so many of us are trying our best.

That said How can we improve interesting content on here? I’m new and I do find what we have currently enjoyable enough

I’d like to have some incentives to bring more frens and clients here starting with a farcaster.xyz that explains in 10 secs what it is and why bother. Website doesn’t even say “decentralised social network” it is a useless inbound asset I lost two potential power users at that UX gate two people who trust me
