/uno now supports channels for stories!

- share a public story to a channel you're a member of on Warpcast
- long term vision is adding your content to generative communities
- if you're not a member of the channel, it'll get hidden on Warpcast, but still labeled on Uno.

still implementing simple onboarding, but hoping to be closed beta ready soon 🙏

Just making a public request to get in on beta when it's ready pretty please and thanks @christopher @heavygweit 😃

feature demos for /uno will slow for a bit: we need to build a dead simple onboarding experience.

"why not smart wallet/Privy/Dynamic?"

1. we need a dead simple sign up.
2. passkeys are a delightful user experience.
3. we are YAGNI true believers.
4. default to learning new things!

I was invited to join /uno

I hope I get invited to beta test it too 😁

🔑

so we have to have a web presence at uno.fun for auth purposes — does anyone have any fun ideas?

i have been thinking about:

- one click image/video upload (e.g. imgur)
- simple profile page
- read-only Farcaster content browser

Uno's success is heavily dependent on @christopher bringing back the stache and wearing overalls while merging PRs

we love you all very equally and so @heavygweit and i will crush a 2 week sprint to onboard more folks into /uno lol.

reasons why we can't onboard today:
1. we want to (IAP + EOA + register with Farcaster contracts) = passkey
2. prevent signup spam
3. literally nothing is cached so things can break cleanly!

fire /uno presentation from usv x variant demo night! 😍🔥

@heavygweit @christopher would be cool to have moshi polaroids i share automatically show up under stories, image-only

short week due to Dev Day!

1. showing mutual likes (long term goal is to make this a fun cast metric/insights area!)

2. experimenting with net-new control bar UI/UX

3. group learning how to do gestures better..

we are so close to launching a closed beta!!

this week was a deep work 🚢 to solve UI/UX performance jank and burn down the TODO list.

really excited for the /uno design language — we have been inspired by artists and creators here!

live in 1 hour/when this cast is 1 hour old!

we'll be talking about /uno and new features and notifications. streaming on YouTube!

@heavygweit and i are kicking around the idea of "story groups." a Story Group is a thread of casts of content like images or videos.

e.g. you have a public photo dump from Singapore, but then a private spill coming home. the public story is a thread of casts with image embeds.

what do y'all think?

live 12 PM ET/this cast is ~1 hour old!

join me and @heavygweit for a quick 30 minute stream to brainstorm a new Story primitive for /uno. we are also switching over to YouTube since Unlonely is pivoting to content (rip)

dark mode + animations = 😍

s/o @mazmhussain, thanks for sharing your trip photos!

with /uno we are focused on discovery and finding the best content and curators at Internet-scale.

your feed should be full of vibrant opinions, images, videos, selfies, stories, and creators. we pick great tastemakers to help us generate it!

hey sorry can’t make the streaming meeting tomorrow. the team needs to be heads down for a 🚢 on Friday for /the-arena.

does that work for you? thanks so much will cancel the invite!

streaming tomorrow at 12 PM ET! we'll be talking photos and content on Farcaster.

all are welcome!

more /uno 🚢 this week for /the-arena!

join us in 1 hour/when this cast is 1 hour old!

another late night 🚢 — pretty much entirely quality of life updates, requested by our first users!

1. camera is super fast to use
2. share with mutual followers on /uno or cast out to Farcaster!
3. delete stories (and remove from Farcaster)
4. smooth full screen scroll! took way too long to solve 🤪

alpha testing right now is just me and @eulerlagrange.eth passing around the 👑 emoji lol.

late night 🚢 — subtle glowing rings around story pfps. takes about 10s for a full cycle.

can you guess the inspiration?

my favorite part about /uno today was sharing our simple focus and origin story.

we are just an app!

no one expects a baby to reveal cosmic secrets of the universe — we still have to learn to speak lol.

join us on Thursday as we keep building!
