Fc is gifting everyone a year of free storage by timdaub.eth12379 🥝 • 2y • | |
AI summary of the linked articleFarcaster's proposal (FIP) would give existing users one extra year of free storage so their casts, reactions and links are not removed when storage expires, with the first units set to expire on Aug 28, 2024. The authors are @danromero, @horsefacts, @sanjayprabhu and @varunsrin. To offset the load on hubs, storage units rented on or after Aug 28, 2024 would be valid for one year instead of two, with message limits 60% lower and the cost reduced from $3 to $2. The proposal says the impact on new users may be slightly negative because of the smaller limits, and it says hub storage should not change much over the long term. | |

 I don't think it'd impact growth as much as it could impact churn. If I were to bet, I'd say that 90% of FC users have no idea there's a thing called storage you have to pay for and that your casts will disappear if you don't pay an extra $5 or $8 per year. Many people might get angry once they see it, and since Merkle has $150M in the bank, they can easily cover these costs. | |
