fwiw I think some of this is asking too much of the Merkle team, specifically “Dan, Varun and team should post regularly from Jam and Discove and other FC apps, actively promote them” “WC team pledge not to introduce any new features that are not available in the protocol”
but agree with the general sentiment and like a few specific ideas “FC team support ETH Global hackathons” “work more closely with 3p apps to make it easier for them to invite and onboard users” “What will attract developers is other developers having success on the platform, even if small to start”
I'm not sure the team building FC should also be building WC (and if built by protocol team should be bare minimum to demonstrate protocol functionality). Protocol is only successful if it proliferates among devs independent of the protocol. .
I think it’s completely fair to ask protocol developers to actively support the ecosystem apps built on the protocol, much like Vitalik makes a point of using Ethereum apps Dan’s post was a screenshot essay - it could have been a longcast on jam. It’s not that he has to make jam his... longcast.jam.so/jjZoIC
Yeah, I think actually WC, Discove and Jam should fiercely compete but come together to govern FC protocol.
