not quite, this was related to general Mini App metadata for sharing / displaying in app stores / etc, not the embed images in feed it's possible we consider opening up the aspect ratio / media options for embeds but not on the roadmap rn

crossword constructors marked safe from LLM taking their jobs for now though they make constructors more efficient

A small look inside the MiniWord sausage factory. This whole thing started as an experiment to learn about crossword construction, and has slowly become more about leveraging LLMs to build tools to improve the process now that I find myself needing to crank one out daily. LLMs are not great at multidimensional reasoning and zero-shotting a perfect grid. But they're really good at pretending to be an editor, and better than me at least at salting clues to taste for difficulty. Haven't started using the feature here to beef up the challenge on the MiniWord, but we've got some interesting options with something like this. Tempted to drop a difficulty setting in MiniWord (say: Easy, Challenging, Expert) and have corresponding leaderboards. If you're solving the MiniWord daily, let me know your thoughts. For now it's fun to see the apples-to-apples comparison of who can do it the fastest. But it's clear there's some of you out there that want a challenge, and that's one click away on my side

also want to respond to this: 1) TikTok spent $1b paying creators before it found success 2) there's a risk to appealing to too narrow but there's a risk of trying to boil the ocean and end up competing head-to-head with incumbents that have huge moats in capital and network effects. early growth in social networks almost has to start by appealing strongly to niche commonuities, dominating those niches, and then growing outside of it

thanks for sharing my main response is to point out that every path is risky and likely to fail— the name of the game is taking the right risks! if you aren't willing to take a contrarian bet that seems unlikely to succeed you won't disrupt the established players that have more resources and network effects than you, if the path was obvious they'd already be doing it for ex I can see your point no one is asking for social feeds in their wallets right now, but I also see hundreds of millions of creators generating hundreds of billions of dollars for platforms and seeing a relatively minuscule amount of that returned to them, and they're starting to wake up and say wait why is someone else profiting off my content, and something at the intersection of social + wallet being an answer to that that doesn't mean to current iteration of the CBW app is going to be a huge success or that MM has found the magic answer and won't pivot its strategy ofc but not having PMF is the default and shots much be taken
