what is herocast again?
=======================

[herocast is a desktop Farcaster client](https://app.herocast.xyz) for power users aka superhuman for Farcaster. [No one knows what it means, but it's provocative. It's gets the people going!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eRRab36XLI)

It has support for multiple accounts and can switch channels faster than you can say 'Memes'. It supports `Cmd + K` (command palette) to control everything. You can navigate with `j` and `k` through all lists, `l` to like (lowercase L) and `r` to recast. Switch channels on Feed page with `Shift + 1 to 9`. Open external links in a cast with `Shift + o`.
