"Sufficiently decentralized" Crazy that some founders don't realize that people have jobs and sometimes have to put projects on hold. Tech bro privilege really does warp reality for these dudes.

I think there’s only two options really. 1. Someone, ideally a FarcasterDAO, votes on whether or not to add or remove mods. Channels would be owned by the DAO but not moderated by it. All decisions would be taken by voting. 2. Harberger tax The problem of squatting is a big one. It shouldn’t be Dan who decides whether someone can use a channel for something they aren’t affiliated with (and especially if they don’t use it at all) but it should be someone.

Harberger taxes perpetuate dominance of those with more access to wealth over those who cannot afford to value their property as high, which in this case would result in capture of communities.. But otherwise agreed 100%. 🔥

My understanding of harberger taxes (limited as it is) is that it should actually prevent a lot of the wealth accumulation we see in society that comes from the unrealistic valuation of non-money property.

Yes! For non-resources (like art, luxury goods, etc), it's a great idea IMO. However for resources, housing, medicine, food, clothing, organizations, Warpcast channels, etc., it is not. This would require people to pay rents on everything (even our toothbrushes) in the form of taxes, while also giving the wealthy a legal right to seize our personal property.
