Warpcast onboarding flow as of August 1, 2024 I've seen an uptick in casts talking about improving onboarding for non-crypto-people. So here's a live onboarding I just did. I'd say it's pretty close to any web2 experience with the exception of upfront payment. You'll notice: 1. Minimal crypto UX — we use in-app purchases and Passkeys 2. The majority of onboarding interests used to populate the initial algo feed are non-crypto. 3. Since we no longer do initial follows, the initial feed nudges new users to follow more people. (Remember, the number one reason people churn is not enough content in their feed.) 4. Aside: crypto people don't sync contact book but non-crypto people do (because every other social app does this). However, that means the new people don't immediately find people they know the network.

This is great! Just need a rock solid “quick start guide” for new users to guide them through the first few hours and days. Love the progress.

No at-scale apps have a quick start guide iirc. TikTok has a swipe up / down single screen guide. If it's not intuitive, people will leave. Average person does not read the manual.

Good point, agree it needs to be intuitive. My concern is that channels and moderation is so complex and different between channels and a new user might get easily frustrated and leave after not getting much engagement. From some of your other posts and hiding (and possibly removing) PowerBadges this might get fixed.

The more likely reason is most new users aren't willing to grind on posting enough to build an audience and get engagement.

Mhm, the people I know that dip in here and out the biggest reason they site for dipping back out is "I couldn't figure out what a channel is" Maybe like a screen that does a quick swipe through of cards with just a few TL:DR tips like "What is a channel?", "What is a warp", etc
