How about the other direction? If I post a comment on paragraph article, will it show up in Farcaster feed?

You need to comment on Farcaster itself by pasting the article link into a cast.

I should know this, but where do I comment on a Paragraph post so that it shows up on Farcaster as well as below the post on Paragraph? Is it just any comment on a cast that includes a link to the post?
Can I publish a cast myself with thoughts on a post and have it show up as a comment somehow?

Okay, tracked down the answer in a post from @colin about the @paragraph x @farcaster integration:
"whenever a Paragraph post URL is shared on Farcaster, the comments & associated discussion are permissionlessly displayed on the post itself."
https://paragraph.xyz/@blog/farcaster-comments
@danicaswanson see here for updated thoughts.
My one open question is on the creator rewards that Zora distributes and that you talked about in detail in your essay. I'm unclear on why we should force the creator to always receive a reward, even if they may not want to, vs being explicit and choosing to charge for it.
Danica Swanson

I still think you should talk to @jacob and use Zora for this.
I'll email you with further thoughts, instead of writing another essay here. :)

how much do subscription NFTs usually cost?
Colin
2y
There’s a few types:
- subscription NFTs for paid subs. Always free and no fees/gas, airdropped to user after signing up for paid sub
- subscription NFTs for free subs. Haven’t launched this yet but it’ll be free plus the same fee as the post NFTs.
mcclick

and paid subs are web2 payments?

How will you deal with URL comments/reactions (FIP-2) when each user shares a different URL? (Maybe keep the same parent_url but use a different embed?)
Colin
2y
I'm not quite sure I understand - this is completely different from Farcaster/Warpcast

I'm talking about sharing a link to farcaster. If I share the referral link, will it appear as a comment under the post, the same way it would if I shared the permalink?

Crazy strong creator referral reward.
That attribution might be hard to track though. I'd guess a creator circles a few times before signing up.
Colin
2y
Yeah, agreed.
Was planning to start with something basic then iterate, eg cookie gets set with 7d TTL upon first getting referred and landing on site.

Cool idea. The referrer would need a lot successful click-through-and-mints for the economics to be attractive. Most people probably don’t have enough followers to make it worthwhile. So the target user of the link would likely be an influencer - so you’re competing against other monetisation options for them.
Colin
2y
Referers could also be platforms and apps, eg @daylight cc @kyle. They’d be incentivized to start showing content to their own app’s audience

I may be missing something, but if I read FIP-2 correctly, this means that FC can be used to comment and react to any URL. Does this mean I could use FC as my commenting system for a blog? If so, how come no one is working on this? https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/discussions/71
Carlos Matallín

I’m really excited about this too, but seems it hasn’t picked up beyond channels.

FC as a social commenting platform is something I'm really excited about
Happy to chat about this with anyone and still trying to get a few more FIP-2 related ideas out there 🫡

- social reactions on pages ("like with fc")
- bookmarking app (all my fc-liked pages, it may be worth adding a bookmark reaction)
- blog post commenting (a fc-powered Disqus)
- smart contract commenting (for example, audits, scam alerts)
- geo-located casts about a place (a bit more complicated)
Varun Srinivasan
2y
yes you can!
i believe paragraph and eventcaster both use this feature today
vrypan |--o--|
2y
wow! This is so big. React and comment on:
- NFTs (I see that channels are comments on specific ERC721 contracts)
- Any page on the web (blog posts, YouTube videos, etc)
Clients chould handle better these cases, like showing "This is a reaction to http://......" and allowing a user to see all reactions/casts on a URL.
vrypan |--o--|
2y
Or even an IPFS CID. Or just an arbitrary string/statement (permissionless channels...)
Wow. Look how nicely this discussion appeared under the post!
antimo

AFAIK you can do the same thing launchcaster does by using neynar.com
dylan

should work with any hub or WC-compliant write API, you just need to set the cast's `parent_url` to the link/smart contract you wanna comment on
Jawa
2y
Or any ETH contract!
vrypan |--o--|
2y
Yes! I've noticed that channels are already comments to a specific contract. For example, a post in the memes channel sets parent_url to "chain://eip155:7777777/erc721:0x4f86113fc3e9783cf3ec9a552cbb566716a57628"
(IMHO, they should be comments on a specific NFT from the contract, and make this the "channels" contract.)

Opportunity for a paid developer API related to FIP-2: for a given URL, NFT collection or NFT, return all casts either directly replying to it *or* mentioning it via an embed.
I'd take a look at how @colin is doing this for Paragraph today.

https://warpcast.com/colin/0x340e69 Reworked this idea and focused moreso on referrals. Any new feedback on this is appreciated.
