"Merkle just helps its friends"

How many times do I have to repeat that most users and developers on Farcaster did not know Varun or myself prior to joining Farcaster.

And in some cases have *become* friends because they stuck around early on when no one else cared. We've spent years with this people socializing on this social network. :)

Don't conflate something that's earned / built with cronyism.

this is me as well. didn't know anybody here, certainly not dan or varun. just posted every day here for 2 years when DAU was like 45 people and the only thing people talked about were note taking apps.

I feel like it’s normal once people join on here
They feel estranged and any little thing makes em feel like it might be bias from familiarity 

When i first joined on here, zi had zero idea what anyone wws talking about and i stopped using the app for about a month and came back

It’s normal😂
