it’s an experiment worth running, to be sure. to me though that format is designed to maximize engagement signal rather than user experience

not sure there’s a use for frames given the ‘tell babes what I did today’ use case

1. you’re underestimating how valuable the peek into someone’s personal life is given “stories” is instagram’s and snapchat’s most used feature 2. as soon as I’m able to add a button that redirects to DCs, utility goes up 3. normal cast shows you view #, but not *who*; this tells me *who* is clicking

1/ I'd argue it being the most used feature is a function of the author's authenticity and fast-twitch user engagement more than the utility of the experience. compressing _n_ moments into a single data object isn't inherently better

2/ agreed that would be great what you're doing with club Ted though feels like a better method for creating more opportunities for intimate engagement.

3/ that's mosdef signal you want. to the extent that data lives off-protocol though, is it not making more work in order to leverage said signal? are there things fc could support that would give you the same signal

all of which is to say, token-gated channels, and to a lesser extent gcs & dcs, feel like where the puck is going stories feels more skeuomorphic — where the puck is today
