Introducing: Seemore qDAU Score 👀
If we want Farcaster to be the infra for a new social internet...
We gotta build public goods to accelerate alt clients AND those goods can't be held captive by the incentives of crypto giants
Plus scores are fun to argue about 🫡
/lounge is an experiment in public-private content 😮💨
Find out wtf that actually means today at 2pm ET during a surprise @unlonely stream 👀
(Plus commentary on decentralized channels + what’s next on FC 🫡)

Introducing: Seemore's "Thread to Frame" Tool 👀
We teased this Monday, saw the demand, and decided to skip a beta and just freaking ship it.
It's as simple as...
1. Cast your thread
2. Input the warpcast url below
3. Cast the new url to display your frame!

If you’re new here, returning, or just someone who wants to get more out of Farcaster, I put a lot of heart into this essay.
No growth hacks or schemes.
Just real thoughts on how to express to the community that you’re here to be part of the Scenius 🫡
One of my big strong opinions, loosely held is…
You gotta ship your creative shit early, fast, and furiously because your first 100 creations are unoriginal, trope-filled, and derivative (not an insult) because that’s all you can learn from just consuming
Execution + Feedback Loops is how you find your voice 🫡
gm to Java Joe!

My grandfather cried when he watched me play Assassin’s Creed for the first time in 2007.
He said he’d never imagined computers would be able to make something so beautiful and I never forgot that.
Everyone here is building the future with magic rocks and I think that’s so fucking cool.
Finishing up an essay to help new casters get up to speed with Farcaster!
Would love to beef up the section on Farcaster lore + timeline of significant events.
What's your favorite Farcaster lore/history/event?

If you are not married yet, enjoy the space and irresponsibility, and if you are married, enjoy the company and participation..
If you still do not have children, enjoy the freedom and lightness, and if you have children, enjoy having offspring who will fill your life with beauty and happiness..

The worst part about ruck marches in the Army for me was never the heavy pack, garbage weather, or the actual walking
The worst part was always the god damn commute to work at dark o’clock where I’d ponder why the fuck I chose a life path that required me to suck fart wind for 3 hours on some random Tuesday
since my native language is different, I sometimes find it challenging to express certain things in the tone I desire. for example, the Turkish term "çıtkırıldım" can be difficult to translate into English while maintaining its nuanced meaning.
In English, "çıtkırıldım" might be expressed as
fragile
feeble
puny
weak
'çıtkırıldım' conveys a sense of excessive sensitivity, which comes from the ro...
Someone asked me today what are the best qualities that I should have to become successful. I thought a lot before answering him.
There are no qualities in general that are successful or positive. You may find someone who is smart and hardworking, but you may find another person who can make relationships and jump faster and higher on the ladder of success.
Everyone has qualities and these quali...
I’m not passionate or informed enough about Warpcast to advocate for any design change to its product.
However, I’d love to develop Dan’s vision for Warpcast into a brand strategy and identity that gives it a platform to scale to a larger audience and carve out a proper cozy corner as the web3 social landscape evolves over time.
yeah uhhh yeah i still need (want?) to work with that amount unless i leave nyc and live … somewhere else lol 🙃
and tbh uhhhh this sorta happened to me during NFT 2021-22 boom and not only did i keep designing - i designed _harder_ bc 1) i kinda felt nothing 2) those bags went to near zero 🤣
during that time i learned that ya money is cool but grinding with your Life Energy (@july) toward an i...
Thanks @cameron for hosting the lounge!
Now warpcast, not sure if there’s anything big enough I’d redesign, given the priorities and limitations of the team.
It’s not always about designing but about actually shipping it to many many people to use again and again
I’d take a look if we have enough of features already but not doubling down on basics, things help farcaster scale, and I’m sure te...
- Brand sprint to get a real logo and visual identity that communicates the spirit of Warpcast in a way that resonates with non-technical audiences
- Better handling of channels on mobile. The stories carousel is the wrong paradigm.
- Ability to associate web2 oauth accounts (Twitter, Insta, Spotify, Goodreads) with my FID
- Experiments solely focused on increasing diversity of DAUs (gender ide...
Give recasts the respect they deserve: skip the algorithm heuristics and surface them as if I casted them myself while the original caster captures all the incoming engagement.
Bangers can't bang if they don't have a chance to spread organically.
Otherwise we're just stuck talking about crypto and founders 24/7
It's funny, my instinct was to say no
But then I looked back at my actual journey so far and life kicked into gear when I made my peace with the fact that I'm a designer. Why would I not do it before? Don't know. Guess I didn't want to pigeonhole myself. But there's beauty in focus, as in making things
Going back to the question, design is my career and I do have goals - 2 mil is not enough to g...
We have reached the LAST question of /lounge Season 3: Designers 😯
Huge thanks to all the extremely talented and thoughtful Loungers in this cohort (go hire them rn)
What other question could I ask but…
Given unlimited authority, what would you redesign about Warpcast today?
🫡
1000% would continue to design.
not much would change in terms of work, as i already am cautious / selective with who i work with.
the only thing that would change would be the technology, swag, & more philanthropy. my goal has always been to become a high tech, swagged out G that betters every community i'm apart of so with said money i'd simply fulfill my self-proclaimed prophecy 🪬🪬🪬
pr...
Definitely would.
First thing, I’d move to a better place as my home base, where basic necessities are solved like water quality, sound and air pollution, indoor humidity/mold etc.
Second I'd slow down and focus on one idea at a time, right now I feel like I can't afford working on one idea/product, focused, for the whole day.
I’d do more of the founder work than hands on design, most of the t...
How it started: I got a nudge from the goddess of money to start exploring crypto as a way to change my financial situation and increase the sustainability of my life.
How it's going: I'm in the top 30 on the Moxie earnings leaderboard 👀
Gonna keep following those nudges...
One joy of spending time with grandparents is hearing random boomer-tastic idioms. Such as “picking fly specks out of pepper” which was said to me so effortlessly and couldn’t help but laugh.
I don’t know the origin of this idiom. But really feels like something a boomer+ would say.
Therefore, I’m adopting it.
2 things are true right now:
- The bots are back bb
- There have never been more interesting people to discover in the nooks and crannies of this app

Firmly recommend this novella if you like non-consensus sci-fi + fantasy
it's anchored in the concept antimemes -> things that exist, yet are unperceivable beyond your active interaction with it and are thus fundamentally unshareable
