With Snapchain live, we're starting to think about what's next. 

Growth is our top priority the and most obvious roadblock is the "Pay $3" screen when signing up.

Working on Farcaster and Warpcast. Longer thoughts at https://dwr.email

Why not add a guest mode? Let people sign up without paying, check out some posts, follow a few accounts, and even try posting once, it’s an easy way to let them get a feel for the network before deciding to pay @dwr.eth @ted

To prevent billions of guest accounts from being created, each guest account could be linked to a verified external account like twitter, github, etc. only once per external account ( Similar to phone number verification, where each account can only be connected to one unique number ) ofc, there are likely more robust technical solutions too

Posting was just one of my suggestions for guest mode, my main point is that users should have a smoother, lower friction experience when first joining the network

If the posts have to show up on other clients, then its a spam vector. What stops someone from creating a billion guest accounts?

If the posts don't have to show up on other clients, then its a frustrating UX. I'm on recaster and I can't see warpcast "guest" accounts.
