Now you know what dApps actually are and why they make sense. So what about some more background?

What we’re trying

Farcaster is a protocol that wants to change the social media landscape. Unlike traditional social networks, Farcaster is not controlled by a single entity or confined to centralized servers.

Instead, it operates on blockchain infrastructure. The tech in the background helps to promote transparency, security, and decentralization. It also minimizes the risks of data breaches and censorship.

Compared to traditional social media giants, it's more of an experiment for now. It's too early to say whether that will change in the coming months and years – but you can see for yourself.
