A social network that follows the 90-9-1 rule has around 4500 highly active "creators." How big is the network? How many are "contributors?" How many are "lurkers?"

Answers left as an exercise to the reader.

this is the "participation inequality" (PI) phenomenon and it exists in every online community EVER studied since early web.

the inequality will always exist, but we can design social platforms to dampen or intensify the inequality (eg 80-16-4 vs 95-3-2).

worst PI: X, ig, tiktok

better PI: reddit, discord, linkedin

same, altho the current user experience of warpcast is much closer to twitter (global) than to discord/reddit (small community)

for small sub communities to grow here, WC needs major improvements

to start, it could show more high-quality non-crypto channel content, casts from less active but high-quality users

wdyt?

kinda difficult to break the power law i guess. Its true even offline - no of folks who ask questions after a talk for e.g. or even listen to the talk actively...

Bullish on small sub communities hence - engaged, dense, active like hell..

today PI is 100% dictated by warpcast as it is the dominant client and user experience

ps it is referenced as participation inequality i just called it PI because of character count limitations :)

Super impressed but i’ve learnt something new today. I’ll keep repeating the “PI phenomenon” to myself.

Do you think PI in farcaster is dictated by the protocol or by clients?

I wonder what is on TikTok, prolly like 98? 

Best PI: WP?

I never thought of it up to know.

Absolutely! While participation inequality is a constant across digital communities, platform design plays a crucial role in shaping its extent. By fostering inclusivity and engagement, we can create more balanced interactions. Reddit, Discord, and LinkedIn offer great examples of this approach.
