Considering setting a few North Star metrics for First Draft Club

Obviously I want to boost subscriber numbers, but I also want people to be successful. If someone joins and never posts that's a big failure in my eyes

Any ideas for metrics to track?
- % of new subscribers that post on their first week
- % of active subscribers that post each week
- Total posts per month

2 community commitment clubs have been v fulfilling: hyperfit w/ @nonlinear.eth + @phil and /firstdraft by @markfishman.

clubs like this existed for centuries, but the internet revolutionized them. now blockchain apps like @hypersub + @warpcast could do the same.

this week for /firstdraft i wrote about what I’m noticing in my surroundings

This week I set out to write an "open cover letter" for my job search – something that would articulate who I am and what I'm looking for

It ended up morphing into my career narrative... and I haven't finished yet

here's the /firstdraft of my intro

thank you so much!! it's also my /okbanger todo list is very long and i need to get this out by sunday or @markfishman will punish me by taking away 5 USDC 😂

i'm bullish on consumer apps ↑

https://paragraph.xyz/@tomu/bullish-on-consumer-apps

this week i wrote about why i'm bullish on consumer apps

some thoughts and questions given recent news re: "interesting content," changes to how channels work

to me, social platforms are marketplaces with "buyers" and "sellers" (in this case, of content)
- creators are "sellers" of their content goods
- enjoyoors / vibing / curators are "buyers"

as a content creator type on fc, i have expressed my concerns that the current fc algorithms punish new users too hard, which reduces possible audience sizes and makes the place not attractive to content creator types (and not fun for content consumers either!)

(i also want to emphasize that i myself am a "buyer" on other platforms like instagram, youtube, etc.! there is no value judgement to be either and we often play both roles.)

so what if instead, *user intent* is composable?
similar to how in role-playing games, you can play as characters with diff types of specialization

and it's set "per session," since sometimes I want to broadcast and share my content, and other times, support my friends with theirs

a bit of a messier /firstdraft this week tho this topic has been top of mind!

i baited @dwr.eth with an excalidraw 2x2 though pretty sure i have abused the 2x2 form since this really isn't a 2x2 it's just...2 bullet points 😂

next post scheduled for Tuesday https://paragraph.xyz/@cheshirecat

This week I wrote about mechanics of sports betting being applied to on-chain fundraising and social capital coordination, and how these mechanics could fundamentally change the way projects raise funds by proposing a proof-based approach. Let me know what you think!

Here’s @packy talking about finding his “personal monopoly”, or unique writing style & voice.

The idea of writing at the intersection of a few things that make you unique was a recurring theme in talking with writers.

Like @packy's advice. Got pod to listen to this weekend ♥️♥️♥️
