GM Farcaster ep15 Oct 23, 2023

Never underestimate how much power your social feed has over you. I was all set for a lovely chill Saturday. Started my day scrolling farcaster. And now I’m at my laptop writing a blog about enterprise communication platforms. 😒 thanks a lot @hyper

New Founder’s channel series Office Hours - Fridays at 11:30am PT until 1pm PT - Ask “founder”-related questions and I and others in the channel will try to answer. Like a collective founder AMA - Will be inviting special guests over the coming weeks

Deleted twitter and my brain feels free I’ll probably re-install in the future but just not having access to it makes me feel much better and clearer

is this accurate: warpcast = twitter interface + reddit culture

And proves 2 women can get done in 21 minutes what it takes 4 men 5 hours to do😜

Here’s a note I shared with our team a year ago at XMTP Labs about where we are at as a startup. Something I still think about today but I thought I’d share it with the world. Love any feedback. https://blog.shanemac.com/more-startups-die-from-indigestion-than-starvation/

Four tribes on Farcaster A couple of leaders A grey mess --> need better interaction data @ccarella.eth is topping the leadership chart

reactions when i tell people i have internet friends (hi @nonlinear.eth) range from scoff to laughter. truth is: my farcaster friendships grew from trust built over hundreds of interactions in a place where freedom of expression and thought is encouraged, where online and offline selves can (and should) be continuous.

i have deleted twitter

I wish our culture was better at honestly expressing our level of uncertainty, and being okay and encouraging of other people doing the same. Having widely-understood ways to say "based on what I know now, I think X, but this is a preliminary opinion and I am super-willing to adjust based on new arguments or evidence".
