Great piece, it explains why some people join Farcaster and then depart. usually, I'm someone who prefers Optimism Over Despair.

Similarly, those who stay here have their own reasons. I believe Farcaster is still very much in its infancy, and the potential of its open protocol is far from fully realized. 

It has grown with crypto and is now facing challenges alongside it. The cozy corners may be small but they are gradually expanding. The upper-layer applications, like Legos, are just beginning to be built.

Most importantly, as long as there are builders involved, there is hope for Farcaster and its ecosystem.

The daily new registrations for Farcaster are approaching the lowest levels seen at the beginning of the year. 

These are tough times for Farcaster and the entire crypto world.

Starting a business is often challenging, especially in the face of such a powerful competitor like X

I like it here. There are many interesting people, and I've learned a lot from them.

yes exactly! Therefore, Farcaster should not directly confront challenges but rather attract people with something unique.
