Semi-regular Warpcast annoyances thread

If you were BDFOWF, what would you have us work on? 

BDFOWF = benevolent dictator for one warpcast feature

The more specific the ask, the better!

rendering frames v2 in DCs

No search for explore page & no app store style experience (cc @woj.eth has all the scoping we did for it on super, so make sure you catch up with him internally)

With v2 notifications, I think DCs are less useful.

Instead of DCs, I'd simply ask the users to subscribe to my app notifs and send them to my app.

no render in DC -> can't type morpho.dtech.vision and have them use it. I need to either cast -> send them or find a cast + send

(above is simplified but also means e.g. no ponder polls in the group)

1) it's v2 frames

2) pure push marketing angle. I am talkign regular conversations / groupchats here

Here is what I have learnt after sending more than 500K DCs in Warpcast.

1. Getting people to open v1 frames in DCs is challenging. Most people don't know where to click or they don't feel safe to click there.

2. Instead, send them a link to a public post. Public post gives them comfort with social validation and a clear CTA.

This is a generic learning, and of course, there are exceptions.
