We're considering ending support for v1 Frames in 3 months. Why? - It has little usage; most devs moved to miniapps - It simplifies the protocol for client builders + new devs. - It simplifies the UX for users. Only one type of "app" in the feed. Over 90% of devs we polled support this decision.

Good to kill V1 frames, but I would strongly advocate for one tap actions for in-feed cards. Polling products are a simple type of interaction that require minimal context and that provide great entertainment/insight when consumed at scale. Putting poll answers inside of a mini app effectively eliminates that category of interaction, or reduces engagement by ~70%. Outside of polling, my expectation is that one tap transactions in feed would increase the velocity of the Farcaster economy more than any other feature (maybe 20-40% above baseline). Our ideal solution would be for anyone whoās added the frame to get a personalized view that includes up to 4 single tap options if the developer chooses, else falls back to the single launch button. This way timelines stay clean for users who havenāt shown interest in the app, but retain some of that āmeet users where they areā magic.

I fully agree with @cojo.eth feedback, and I think it would be the best way to address it. As said, there are some interesting use cases for social media, like quick polling, in which the v1 UX makes the difference. Are you thinking about implementing something like that for v2 or is it out of the equation already? cc/ @v @deodad
