Dear builders: prompting me to add your mini app as soon as I open it gives me the ick

Wait until after I’ve taken the main action

Yeah of course but the reality is if you need the notification token to pull the user back in your product probably needs work

I was asking @limone.eth about this last week during his mini apps talk at Builders Day

my gut instinct is what you’re saying, it’s annoying and I rather do something in the app first

but on the other hand for an app developer, getting the notification token as early as possible is very helpful for later. so I feel like I see both sides here

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

The best ones still have a semblance of an onboarding flow

+ in this case I'm invoking from the feed with limited context

every successful consumer app in web2 does this :)

it shouldn’t be instant but well placed in onboarding

saying as an offending dev 🤣

At least give me a clue what the damned thing does!
