Vitalik Buterin on Warpcast

What do people think of the idea that Farcaster might be *too polite*? Like, people love to rail against the toxicity of twitter, but ultimately it's a PvP MMORPG and lots of people really enjoy the PvP - if not participating, then at least seeing some fireworks in the background...

I think the politeness is a side effect of there not bring significant conflict fault-lines, which in turn is due to the crypto-positive self-selection filter. Correlates with a lot else.

Twitter often feels like toddlers fighting over toys in preschool whereas Warpcast feels like adolescents participating in the Harkness method at high school. I’ll opt-in to the one that’s more conducive to learning, although it could use a little more spice.

Is this about seeing more disagreement in discussions or about seeing emotions flare?

Right now Farcaster is small. The social norms we establish today will inevitably be diluted when the protocol opens to the public.

I keep thinking one group that wouldn't feel "as at home" on FC are the MEV crew, despite a blockchain native platform potentially being a better fit. Not that they are "impolite", but there def seems to be something there. Not as much of an "anon-discord" vibe, for better, or worse :)

No. I’d rather people disagreeing intelligently than shitheads shitposting. When people craft online personae, everything they do becomes flat, vapid reality tv. To me, the chemical makeup of the firework is far more interesting than the firework show itself.

I'm active here, on Lens and Twitter. I love how people are here. No bots, real people with real interactions. More importantly: people disagree and respect each other. We have back the so lost netiquette. I really hope Farcaster keeps it like this. Quality over quantity.

Challenge accepted. Vitalik, we don’t need your dictatorship here. Controlling eth isn’t enough, you also want to tell us how to run FC? You’re a wannabe Satoshi and eth is going to 0. Do I at least score a 5/10 for impoliteness?
