Sourcing quality content isn't a Warpcast specific problem. The fast majority of the online experience is devoid of quality content anymore. The web2 engagement model has made it so ppl are incentivized to post baity content: This content is designed to bait you into focusing your attention on it long enough for the creator to get paid by advertisers. Nowhere in this system is there an incentive that results in content viewers actually getting the information they need/want. Search for anything and you'll get endless pages of useless blogs, uninformed opinions, and pointless content. If I want to learn something I usually have to dig through forum discussions and Reddit threads for that small handful of ppl who actually have the information I'm looking for. Nothing about the modern Internet experience is designed to elevate that information so ppl can find it and the person who shared it gets recognition. This is the problem space we need to solve.

You might say FC is attempting to solve this via the social graph.

They are attempting to create the ability for anyone to solve this via an open social graph. It's like the highway. We still have to figure out the vehicles, transfer stations, logistics, etc to make a viable shipping industry. And there's a wrong way to do it that will just get more of the same engagement baity results, which we are seeing happen right now.
