What's something you find confusing about Farcaster or Warpcast? No dumb questions—if it's confusing to you, likely confusing for others.

I think it’s a little confusing what the wallet “associated with” your Farcaster account is. Like the difference between your farcaster-generated wallet and the wallet(s) you “normally” use and how they all relate to your FC identity Fwiw I get how it works now but was confused for a bit

i guess its 'confusing' how this broadcast $0.99 appstore thing doesnt go thru and even when you redo it, and it says i already paid for it so its free, but still doesnt connect?

Still not fully sure how Farcaster works behind the scenes. What hubs do. What the relationship is with Optimism (or whatever L2 Farcaster is doing stuff with). And when I went to the site a few days ago I mostly saw videos instead of text to read or search through for relevant content.

Nomenclature; Joined when it was Farcaster, now it's Warpcast, and not "Warpcaster." - Some time spent on branding (which is part of the UX) would help I think.

I don't understand how *Home* works It seems to prioritize *replies* to things I've already seen over new casts I haven't yet seen In other words, I regularly see the same cast thread with new replies rather than new casts

FC decentralisation, I don't understand fully how (in terms of control) is FC different than a web2 website managed by a private company (other than that it is based on web3 solutions) What parts of FC, protocol, nodes, etc are decentralised (as in controlled by community, or immutable) vs controlled by Merkle

– Overall wording: farcaster is close to Warpcast, etc. – Having private casts or DMs on mobile but not in browser – Switching between channels is different on mobile and desktop – Character count just gets displayed towards the limit 👀

for fid [nnn], would it be possible to confirm it's been nerf'd on Warpcast (to clear ambiguity), why did it happen, and is there a path back from different categories of violations?

when a user pays for storage, are they paying for warpcast storage specifically? Or network-wide? Since casts are not on-chain, how are storage fees distributed or used?

Since casts are not on chain, are there big technical issues in the way implementing editable casts? Or adding a channel after casting?

I enjoy using Warpcast very much. The scenius is genius. And I understand that Farcaster is the protocol, but I would love to understand better which apps are current, and which were just hack-session-playthingies. Also: what more can I use the protocol for.

Haven't been following the details on all the storage talk. One thing I like about 𝕏 is being able to search my tweets from 5 years ago. Will I be able to do this on Farcaster or not? (If the answer is "it depends", how to ensure I can?)

In someone’s profile, “Casts” shows not only their original casts, but also recasts of others. And in “Casts+Replies”, I see the same, plus the replies. Separate tabs for original casts, recasts, and replies would help and be more MECE. I know it loosely follows Twitter’s structure which I never understood.

For some reason the device did not recognize my recovery phrase. After more than a month, Farcaster sent an email and I have a new recovery phrase . At the moment I have Warpcast in my iPad but I have difficulty to pair with my mobile. Maybe is me but it does not seem easy
