appreciate the thoughts. there is no “positive” way to spin what has happened to me.but this part..“..on platforms that would toss us aside the moment we're not at all useful for them.”what did stani, mp, paris, christina, and especially mp do to me? for asking questions. to someone they collected thousands of dollars worth of art, of someone supposedly so problematic?

tbf, i agree with most of the things you post here are valid and true despite your way of conveying them 🤣 (ex. re: fumbles in lens protocol development by core team, why you feel betrayed as an artist that used the previous setup, etc.; re: the drama parts, i have less of an idea as i wasn't following)but re: decentralized social, it's clear you are not the core audience, which is totally fine as it's more of a technical and philosophical point than a consideration that a major end user should have; the importance of deso is more about giving you/devs/users the opportunity to own your graph in the off case that you should need to take ownership of it, which 99% of the time, most people will not, so again i think your opinion for yourself is validi do want to chime in though to say that you're able to make what you've made on base so far because there's not so many active users yet and so you're able to standout more; but imagine trying to do that if base app reaches the level of instagram or snapchat, not saying you wouldn't be able to but it'd be much harder to standout and compete at that pointwhich is why decentralized social is kind of cool; if the farcaster protocol is more widely adopted and you do reach a point where you want to leave the base app but retain your audience up to now, you would be able to do so!sorry to write so much, but long story short, i agree with you that deso doesn't matter for most. but it's necessary infra to helping everyone feel less trapped on platforms that would toss us aside the moment we're not at all useful for them.

cool, what’s the roadmap @masknetwork?other than “let’s hope more users magically appear” on @orb how is any of this being marketed to normal people on IG, TikTok, YouTube?what is the draw for web3 social?when do we stop mentioning lens, who abandoned everyone the same way base did?you cannot dunk on base with literally no message on how you’ll be any different for creatives even after the acquisition/saving of a failed chain who did the exact same to us here accountability season or else you’re just not serious - this applies to companies and even to artists still believing everything we’re told
this toolbag spent TWENTY TWO MILLION BRITISH POUNDS ON AN UNNECESSARILY GIANT HOUSE and couldn’t reward you all collectively 1/50th of that (as a tax write-off to evade even more UK taxes) for your loyalty and free marketing over three yearsthen again, maybe the house needs to be that big to fit bobby’s big bowl cut
emerging from the mountains to, once again, realize another tone deaf social platform has completely abandoned artists (after a phenomenal gaslighting spree) is zero surprise and honestly welcoming in the grand scheme of put the device down for good@orb is the last hope
probably ever
