Semi-regular Warpcast annoyances thread

If you were BDFOWF, what would you have us work on? 

BDFOWF = benevolent dictator for one warpcast feature

The more specific the ask, the better!

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

Bring more L2 communities here, seeing all day base bull posting is annoying

Are we even trying? As of now it feels like this platform is „based“ from all narratives rather than being „the web3 social app“

Is Farcaster too Base-centric?

A common piece of feedback is "Farcaster is only for people in the Base ecosystem."

Fair / accurate parts of this criticism: most onchain activity for Farcaster users is on Base, there are 3x as many connected Ethereum addresses as Solana addresses on the protocol, Warpcast's wallet does not support Solana. We also do our USDC pay outs on Base.

Misconceptions: Farcaster, the protocol, is 99% offchain—we use a blockchain-like system called Snapchain (previously Hubs)—and the part that is onchain is on OP Mainnet (still part of the Superchain). We support a bunch of other chains via mini apps (frames) and Warpcast wallet: Arbitrum, Polygon, Gnosis, Degen, Zora, Unichain.

The reality is Farcaster users index on 1) Ethereum and 2) apps. And Base is clearly the leader in that category—but entirely based on their own execution.

We are. 

The reality is other than Solana, not much happening in consumer in other ecosystem right now. Some stuff brewing, but still early.

Missed this thread from you a week ago. So seeing you’ve been having it on your mind and are already working on it which seems promising 🤘

So I see the issue it is community dev driven as well. 

On the other hand I asked last week a friend if „there is something like Farcaster a SocialFi app on sonic“ 
Since I thought myself as well it is base/OP only. 
My question should be „when will sonic join Farcaster“ but as said I thought they can’t join Farcaster.


So rather than every ecosystem is building their on socialFi app you should somehow onboard them 🤔
Aswell getting the Farcaster community to a shift of thoughts that Farcaster is „based socialfi“ and  more it’s „web3 socialfi“ 

(Sorry for grammar it’s late here and I’m not natively English speaking)
