Friendly reminder that unless you're an influencer selling lifestyle for a living, there's only one person that needs to be excited about your life, and that person is you.
When you're about to give a talk at Farcon and you start wondering where is that t-shirt you haven't seen since 2017
When someone at Farcon asks me if I'm Mac from Kiwi
Just created a collection for @gitcoin GG20: explorer.gitcoin.co/#/collections/… How: - I dogfooded some experimental impact metrics for all the OSS projects - I did subjective assessments on non-OSS projects - I set a constraint of 100 projects - If a project is in multiple rounds, I only…
testing @Gigamesh new farther experiment the idea is to reward people for posting about farcaster here. atm we should include our fids (my fid1048) in posts but i guess in the long run it might go off as spammy. anyway, interesting permissionless evangelization experiment 👀
If you're in tech, pivot to goose farming
If you found an advertising channel efficient enough that for every $8 spent, you got $1/mo revenue… …and you offered two months free on an annual plan… …your marketing budget would be infinity. So, why isn’t that your goal?
Panel 1 🟣 This is BIG news! @MacBudkowski will join Panel 1 as a speaker! 🤗 Mac is the Co-Founder of @KiwiNewsHQ, which has highly curated news & content for web3 builders! 🫡 Looking forward to the various web3 stories, and the /niche-internet things to be shared by him 🟣…
I never considered that having users from a particular geography gives you an advantage but... I use @KiwiNewsHQ in the US now and when I wake up, the app is full of content curated by users from the Europe and Asia. This would be impossible if we had only the US userbase.
@KiwiNewsHQ @MacBudkowski @freeatnet I forgot: @MacBudkowski's nice write up on niches: kanfa.macbudkowski.com/why-niches-mat…
I am exploring @KiwiNewsHQ – kind of HN for blockchain content. I just started yesterday and gonna dedicate more time to it (bc content distribution is as much important as content production). But as my first impression i have some very "pro" feelings and some very "contra"…
Opened my bag since tomorrow I start my journey to Farcon. I will fly from Europe, stop at ETH Boston (25-29/04), and then will be in LA (29/04-7/05). If you're in any of these locations, hit me up so maybe we can meet for a coffee 🫡
This is big. I think the arguments behind this ban are strong, but it doesn't change the fact that it's a historical move with unpredictable consequences. It's going to be interesting to watch what's next.

back in my day, the blue checkmark meant you paid a journalist website to write a waffle article about you so you could prove your “notability” to Twitter.
