We're planning to move forward with rebranding the Warpcast mobile and web app to Farcaster.

1. Nothing is changing any time soon. We will take our time with this and have plenty of communication about it across multiple channels. The earliest the change will happen is mid-May, but a decent chance it happens in June.

2. We're going to work on a plan over the next 2 weeks and should have a plan by the next developer call on May 8, 2025. We will discuss on the call.

3. For developers: we're planning to open source the client monorepo— i.e. the mobile and web apps. Again, no timeline on this yet.

Warpcast is being rebranded to Farcaster 

1. Mobile app will be called Farcaster 
2. The Arch logo will return
3. Website will move from warpcast.com to farcaster.xyz.
4. All links will be backwards compatible. No action needed. 

Will roll out this week or next, depending on app store reviews.

While I think this move makes sense, how would you incentivize developers building alternative clients?

@woj.eth created a fantastic client /super and you scooped it up (hiring Woj), essentially killing the competition

Currently, we have /recaster with hardly any users and /fiids, which I love and hope it continues existing

Remember how you started Farcaster and don’t turn into Facebook, eliminating competition on your way to the top

there’s not enough users for multiclients, and multiclients dont bring new users

i think this decision is the best to grow users on the protocol right now
