So are mini-apps decentralized in some way? Or just in the sense that they use open social data?

they are websites, the underlying functionality could be onchain for most of them like it is for yoink but the interfaces (the frames themselves) are operating on single servers currently afaik although i think maybe they could be hosted decentralized on ipfs with .eth links maybe

so curious why that's such a big push vs protocol stuff 🤔

not sure what this means? big push vs protocol? if you mean why push frames instead of core fc protocol updates i think its because they think the frames will drive more daus

lol half-thought. let me re-type: -- Why have they been pushing mini-apps so much vs pushing more stuff to the protocol? I feel like most people are here for the ideological decentralization, but that doesn't seem to get as much love these days. -- and yeah that totally makes sense, since last frame was a part of the major boom. I don't know if it's been as big of a hit this time. (not critiquing, just thinking out loud)

Personally I think mini apps can help grow FC more than new protocol features. Both are necessary long term but I think one is more useful right now

Fair point! lots of reflecting these days. Thinking about the reason I joined was because Chris Dixon was excited about the decentralized part

I also joined because of the interest in the decentralization part, but got engaged only after frames and other open warpcast specific features, then retained by the friends made along the way.
