Your current thinking on growing a social network, and comparing/contrasting with the approaches Threads/Twitter/Mastodon/BlueSky/etc are taking
something that's important to you but feels a little uncomfortable sharing

The role and place of leadership in decentralized web3 communities.
I’m a sucker for macro trends, first principles and going back to basics How is today different than yesterday? The importance of social media and/or memes Why decentralized social matters Sprinkle in some personal learnings and musings

Actually I’m curious if you think having money/security makes you a better founder or worse? And can you know it’s not copium if you say better?
Have you worked for someone else before? And if so how different is it compared to working in Web3/new horizont/uncharted territory/being with likeminded folks like @v pursuing things that matter for the future of the human race?
Tell me your hardships and obstacles you have had in your career. The raw truth.
I liked the previous “what I am excited about” posts, a 2023 version would be cool
Thoughts on who is, or is not, responsible for kicking CSAM off Farcaster? Like the DOJ comes to you and says “this person is hosting CSAM,” are you responsible? Do you have to actively scan? When does “actual knowledge” occur? These are things I’m thinking through, could be an interesting thought piece
Lebanon and the intersection of religion, politics and energy The multi religion (Shia, Sunni Druze, Maronite, Melkite etc) multi political party (future movement, Lebanese forces, hizbollah) and its public services, infrastructure, energy infrastructure and how it came to be I want to read an essay about it

Can you write about interesting restaurants and bars that you’ve went to?
I’m curious how you’re feeling on this journey. What are you excited about that doesn’t land w users? What are users excited about that surprised you? What do you wish we knew? What burns you out? What annoys you? What inspires you? What are you looking forward to?
The potential of participative and continuous social experiments. More like Warpcast and Farcaster, less like Musked Twitter.
What are the honest views on the potential impact of web3 on various aspects of life, and what advice or tips would you give to builders to avoid any unintended ‘be careful what you wish for’ scenarios in the web3 realm?
id love to read about your experience/ views on building with community
Protocol wars Farcaster, ActivityPub, Nostr, ATProtocol, etc
commoditization of data in the era of LLMs and foundation models
Bootstrapping a protocol. Incentives for devs to build vs user acquisition - can you focus on both? They’re dependent on each other for sure, but can you do both together, and do it well?
