Warpcast onboarding flow as of August 1, 2024

I've seen an uptick in casts talking about improving onboarding for non-crypto-people. So here's a live onboarding I just did. I'd say it's pretty close to any web2 experience with the exception of upfront payment.

You'll notice:

1. Minimal crypto UX — we use in-app purchases and Passkeys

2. The majority of onboarding interests used to populate the initial algo feed are non-crypto.

3. Since we no longer do initial follows, the initial feed nudges new users to follow more people. (Remember, the number one reason people churn is not enough content in their feed.)

4. Aside: crypto people don't sync contact book but non-crypto people do (because every other social app does this). However, that means the new people don't immediately find people they know the network.

Love it! 

One note, on pick a username section, I think it would be nice to tell new users that they can't change it (if i'm not mistaken)

Building /ambassadors and /base-ph. Warpcast is super fun.
