Farcaster

what's been (or continues to be) Dan/Varun's biggest mistake with Farcaster or Warpcast?

Idk if this is a mistake on the teams part but I still find it impossible to explain fc to normies

Interesting. Do people not understand that 1) you don’t control your data with traditional social media and 2) you do with FC?

Opinions are my own.

I would think "normies" might understand #1 but not the value or why they'd care.

Whatever your decentralized, borderless, neutral, censorship-resistant open blockchain question is, the answer is YES… to Crypto!

Fair enough. I’ve often wondered / worried about what will make enough people ‘vote with their feet’ with platforms like FC. Current best think / hope is that *creators* value control of their content. Others will follow the best content. Do consider creators to be normies? 😀

Yes, great point.  People will use a platform that has good UX, has content they want, and maaaaaybe aligns with their interests or principles. I think UX/content will trump principles with 90% of normies.  So, you're right - attract/educate creators and problem is half solved.
