I often see people Farcaster isn't "sufficiently decentralized".

You're free to define what "sufficiently decentralized" means to you, of course, but how we think about it is laid out in Varun's blog post.

Due to the monopoly of warpcast, third-party login is difficult to achieve

I know I can choose other clients instead of Warpcast, and I can even develop a client that supports wallet login. But you can't ignore the fact that Warpcast is the leader. 99% of users are using Warpcast, but Warpcast, as the leader, has not assumed the corresponding responsibility, and is still constantly strengthening the city.

Stop saying you don’t need warpcast. The reality is that Farcaster and Warpcast are deeply bound together, unless you can decentralize important functions in Farcaster, such as Channel creation and joining.

Do you think I am happy to use Warpcast? If Farcaster is not functionally incomplete, I would not use Warpcast. Because Farcaster is incomplete, I have to use Warpcast.

I am here to build a decentralized social platform, not for you, but for web3.

I can understand that Warpcast wants to monopolize profits, but the better Farcaster is built, the greater the profits of Warpcast will be.

Why are developers frustrated, why do users come and leave? You are the one who is frustrating them, you are the one who is driving them away

Stop say you don't need Warpcast, please don't say this again until Warpcast and Farcaster can't be untied. No one likes to use Warpcast, What we likes is Farcaster, but they have to use Warpcast because of some centralized functions.

You know for a fact that Warpcast is the leader, and the status quo is that Farcaster and Warpcast are deeply bound, so please stop saying you don't need Warpcast

How does Warpcast handle spam? It simply marks most non-PB users, which results in new users having no traffic and leaving after they come. I admit that many things will have a chaotic period in their development, but we should solve them proactively, not passively. Just like I tell you these things to make Farcaster better, not to say that you have any problems.

And in fact, I am also planning to develop a Farcaster client that supports wallets login. But I still hope that Farcaster will become more dynamic, rather than being trapped by the shackles of Warpcast.

By the way https://docs.farcaster.xyz/auth-kit/ it is Warpcast authKit not Farcaster authKit

We need to work together before we can defeat twitter. Do you understand?

You can sign up directly with the contract. You don’t need Warpcast.
