I realize casts are short term but paragraphs stay forever so I’m trying to lean in more.

Could you say more? Here are a few other versions of the publication homepage, some of which use more image-based cover photos for posts (vs. text-based cover photos). Curious if that helps pinpoint what you're seeing.

Yes, totally understand. We may bring back more customization over time, we'd just want to try to balance it with maintaining a nice reading experience.

I'm still in your camp, but I tried to convince myself otherwise: https://paragraph.xyz/@reidtandy/on-memecoins-from-a-skeptic I really do think Murad's presentation is top notch. Don't agree with everything in there, but helped me better understand why some folks (lots of my friends!) have gotten swept up w/ memecoins.

@pichi explores how crypto social legos on Farcaster are transforming online engagement by allowing everyday users — not just influencers — to earn money for their content. "Today, average people are getting paid to post on Farcaster." https://paragraph.xyz/@pichi/post-to-earn-the-new-farcaster-meta-of-2026

@macbudkowski explores the concept of memeplexes — clusters of ideas that frequently appear together, even if they aren’t logically connected, and that sometimes lead to ideological conformity and the erosion of critical thinking. "The goal here isn’t to eliminate tribal thinking entirely – that’s probably impossible. Rather, it’s about identifying the memeplexes you follow and putting yourself in a place where you will naturally see many different ideas." https://kanfa.macbudkowski.com/escaping-the-memeplex

@anika outlines Base’s ambitious goal to scale throughput to 250 Mgas/s by the end of 2025, ensuring sub-cent transaction fees to make onchain activity globally accessible. "Our North Star for throughput is 1 Ggas/s (pronounced “gigagas per second”), ~40x of where we are today. Base needs to scale at least this much to support 1 billion users transacting onchain while ensuring transaction fees stay sub-cent." https://blog.base.dev/scaling-base-in-2025

@ramon explores Ethereum’s ongoing identity crisis, contrasting two competing visions — one viewing Ethereum as a machine driven by financial success and token speculation, the other as a garden fostering open innovation and decentralized growth. https://paragraph.xyz/@rm/the-garden-and-the-machine

@lght.eth argues that while many lament the current state of the digital world, we have barely begun to understand or properly leverage its core pillars (technology, money, design, and media), and that our collective digital literacy is still in its infancy, leaving vast opportunities for growth. "Speaking generally to the internauts, it feels like we've been given lever, fulcrum, connectivity, and resources to a tune no generation prior has received." https://paragraph.xyz/@thenetworkcompany/matrix

As a writer or as a reader? As a writer, I totally understand. As a reader, I feel like it's a better reading experience now, but curious to hear other perspectives!

Looking into this - I think there's a bug with the mini app showing up.

If you ever want to publish to both (to tap into FC integration, make your post collectible, etc.), we have a pretty easy "Import post" function on the dashboard (below the "New Post" button). https://paragraph.xyz/dashboard
