New UX on Warpcast mobile: channel icons

- Channels now have visual icons
- Discover, join and leave channels by tapping the "All" button (you no longer need the NFT to join)
- New Books and LA channel experiments
- Renamed Following to Home and Highlights to Trending

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

Slowly moving Home to an algorithmic feed over the next few weeks. We think this is the best UX for most users, esp. new users. The algo will take into account following, interactions and onchain.

We will also be adding a Following (simple reverse chronological) feed option for those that don't want an algo.

I’m not against an algorithm but I don’t want to be manipulated into unhealthy engagement like other social medias — I would ideally want the algorithm to induce discovery & interesting conversations and I think that if we take the time to conceive it as a community we can do something incredible!

I’ve always thought something like this could go a long way towards helping us both use these psychological techniques and manage our own exposure to them. Before nutrition labels, knowing the impact of a donut was quite difficult, now it’s not

Currently researching tools and software to make real-time, fast & snappy crypto apps.
