Spent the past 2 hours responding to Bountycaster questions. To keep things manageable for me, I need to add a hard stop on time answering questions to 10 min total for each post (this was my norm before Moxie meta). Prioritizing most frequently asked questions and from active Bountycaster users going forward 🙏
And let's meet up for coffee the next morning. See you soon!
We're excited to see a lot of you in Toronto this week. Stop by and say hi at happy hour Tuesday!
I actually like that there’s no beef on Warpcast; the people are much more civilized. The conflict-driven engagement model of other social media platforms had a profoundly negative social effect. It’s more constructive to incentivize people to converse with respect while steering clear of meltdowns and dunking.
Amazing! Thanks Title IX! 🥇 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/world-beaters-women-athletes-ruled-olympics-rcna166149

If you're having issues with the latest mobile app version (action buttons, recast, or other prompts not responding), can you share your device, OS, and app version? Trying to track this down. (You can DM too).
Trying a new policy Replying to every cast of mine with mid replies will earn you a mute. Best part is you won’t know if you’re muted. So be thoughtful (or at least funny).
For developers Looking for feedback on Sign in with Farcaster. Besides support for other clients like Supercast and Herocast, what’s the biggest pain point? What’s confusing? What do you wish existed? The more specific, the better.
Update - we’ve had a bunch of submissions already! - team is taking some well-deserved time off this weekend - we will start going through the submissions on Monday - depending on sustained interest, we will automate more of the process and use the app / DCs vs. external form - aware that form asks for 3 images and we only have one. Will fix later today.

Bluesky has more users than Farcaster and is also sufficiently decentralized. What is the best argument for why devs should build on Farcaster instead of Bluesky?
