Love this vision

Already on the right path towards making a better Farcaster. Nice job @rish FEEDBACK IS A GIFT!

I feel this too. Technology doesn’t really disappear. Especially not when we’re talking about private protocols. That idea is still new (and honestly hard to understand) for our generation. We grew up on public protocols: SSH, email, TCP, UDP. We grew up on open roads everyone could use. This is what led to Advertising becoming the dominant business model. A capitalist internet is different. It’s gated. Owned. Metered. We might need another ten years to really understand what that shift means and what it costs.

Yes, this is the future. I welcome on-device AI. Lots of good uses for mobile-first experiences. “Sending all your data to third party centralized services is unnecessary. We have the tools to do much less of that. We should continue to build and improve, and much more actively use them.”

Success gives you a high-five. Failure gives you the instruction manual.

Thought of the day: gr0wth = effort × time. Effort can be hired. Time cannot. I checked. r3v3nu3 = effort x time. Same algebra, different focus.

Every mobile revolution monetises a unit. 1990s - Minutes. 2000s - Bytes. 2020s - Transactions.

This article explains something Farcaster learned this year. Farcaster is not really a decentralized communication network. It’s an entertainment network. Think TV 2.0. Instead of TV shows, it has feeds and creators. Instead of ads, it runs on token incentives. Same goal as old TV: keep people watching. Different engine: tokenomics, not advertisers. https://ploum.net/2025-12-15-communication-entertainment.html

If platforms can’t be broken up, they at least have to open up. Interoperability will soon be a $1B opportunity.

Today I learned of the word “Involution”. Generally, it means excessive competition which leads to deflation and overcapacity. Involution can also be used to describe a kind of change without progress.
