Farcaster

My dream blog engine:

- Posts as long casts stored on IPFS.
- Casts embed the posts allowing me to "publish" them.
- A channel only for my blog posts, sorted by date.
- Cast replies are the comments.
- Channel notifications for new posts.

Tada! An easy to publish, easy to read, 100% decentralized blog.

Any resemblance with rss enclosures is not a coincidence.

An oldie, but relevant https://medium.com/pinata/how-to-build-substack-on-ipfs-a940a5caf812

Kinda building this.

1) pulls casts from channel and paragraph posts

2) supports long casts in different ways.

Read only but will get to write, etc.

For the RSS fans - I built a light wrapper around Farcaster Hub APIs to easily generate feeds for a user or channel https://feeds.fcstr.xyz/

Open source, no extra dependencies beyond a hub, easy to configure

Inspired by @kmacb.eth's cast yesterday https://warpcast.com/kmacb.eth/0x94f36f22
