We need a Farcaster client run by direct democracy.

Who would vote? Users who have been active more than X% in the past 90 days?

writing stuff about tech + decentralization

Users are definitely a key stakeholder, workers too imo. 

The casual, in-feed survey is an amazing UX for liquid democracy and inferring people's preferences. You don't need to question everyone on everything for it to work.

Fair but typically when people say direct democracy, they mean that *all* stakeholders have *equal* voting power (even if it’s not on everything, it’s hard to define “everyone” or even “not everyone”). While I’m strongly in favour of this it is something that can be hard to implement, especially in a low friction environment like social networks that can be filled with bots and alts. Curious to see someone propose implementation beyond the (good) suggestions you made above.

Yeah definitely not easy stuff. Sybils are no joke. In that sense, social verification seems more promising than the Orb proponents.

I'm still hopeful that good token incentives can be useful for fostering real,  genuine democratic participation in digital spaces. Fingers crossed 🤞🏽
