Frames sparked a ton of creativity and showcased what a composable social feed could look like. Frames v2 were a completely new standard that combined in feed interactivity with fully-fledged web applications. The term itself has become confusing since it refers to multiple things within Farcaster. It is also unrecognizable to developers outside the ecosystem. One idea is to Frames -> Mini Apps. This will reduce term confusion and make it legible to huge ecosystem of developers working on applications in ecosystems like Telegram and World. What say you?

I think mini apps should be called mini apps for sure. but there's a different word for what frames v1 sparked which is a social, feed-first, interactive mini experience. a mini app can generate a frame that goes viral.

yea one option is to leave frame as the term for the social feed embedded experience but still suffers from the overloaded problem vs just calling them something like rich embeds or cards
