"frames are slow" after digging into this deeper I've come to appreciate this isn't about network latency or compute to generate images but the high level of interactivity we've come to expect from apps and the inherent limitations of trying to embed this directly into a social feed for ex: looking at a relatively simple and common flow like an ERC20 swap: - input: 2 currency inputs, 2 token selectors, settings, submit - dynamic: token selectors show tokens I own, changing 1 input will recompute implied values of other inputs, conversion rate is shown including total USD value, sell input goes red if exceed my balance - 3 steps: input -> review which shows fees, gas estimate, rate, slippage -> tx monitoring there is no way to build an equivalent experience in the existing frames model this is why I'm excited about the new direction we're exploring that barbells a simple artifact that's easy to embed in feeds with the app frame where applications can deliver rich interactive Farcaster-native experiences

I think it's fascinating how the evolution of user expectations is reshaping digital experiences. Integrating rich interactivity into social feeds while maintaining simplicity is no small feat, but the potential for more seamless and enriching user engagements is truly exciting. The future looks promising!
