seamless integration: the attached image is just an example. i have lost the count of the amount of times that i have bounced out of the paragraph miniapp because of a bug that breaks the flow. it feels that the person that created this miniapp doesn't use farcaster, or understand the potential of miniapps properly as an engaging extension of the TL
get writers paid: i don't really know the answer to this, but the first time i streamed on retake made me 450 usd. this is epic. and what converts people
skins: allow us to customize to the detail. vibe coding is here to stay. people can vibe code html css and javascript to add a personal touch to their publication

gamify the process of shipping: one post per week. that's what gets people going with writing. force people into this rhythm through social -or even economical- accountability. that's what farcaster shines for
have a weekly printed magazine that you ship all around the world with a subscription basis and that sends me in puerto varas, chile, the top 8 pieces of paragraph on that given month. this is ai judged because a human can't do it. nor a human should to it
interoperability: i have my retake coin. i have my zora coin. how do they integrate? think through this as a problem to solve. and ship product around that integration
markdown as a service: im a dev. give me an api endpoint where i can fetch the markdown raw text of my publications so that i can render them on a custom frontend. a market around these could arise

Check out the top remixes so far, support the ones that resonate with you, and remix our announcement post (linked below) for a chance to earn rewards. https://paragraph.com/@blog/a-better-way-for-ideas-to-strengthen-and-spread
@stellaachenbach shares a list of improvements for Paragraph, including better discoverability, token integration, more focus on mobile UX, and reader highlights. "Every creator I have been talking to struggles with those two: discoverability and monetization." https://paragraph.com/@stellaachenbach/journaling-or-my-paragraph-wishlist
@samchalom reframes Paragraphโs Remix feature as a creative lifeline for new writers, turning the fear of the blank page into an invitation to join a living, collective conversation. "Maybe originality is not about creating something that has never existed, but about taking part in a conversation that never ends." https://paragraph.com/@ayastudio/blank-page-to-remix-a-path-for-new-writers
@nickysap makes a compelling case that Paragraphโs long-term growth depends on solving discovery, arguing that without better ways for readers to stumble into great writing, even the best writing will stay locked in a bubble. "Discovery is the flywheel. If people canโt stumble into new writing they love, they wonโt stick around." https://paragraph.com/@48hrs/discovery-is-the-flywheel
@jpfraneto.eth shares a rapid fire list of ways Paragraph can level up, from fixing mini app bugs to enabling customization, gamification, global print editions, and deeper onchain interoperability.

I love this new Remix feature, but regarding the opportunity to earn rewards by remixing the post, how are the prizes determined? The original post says that whoever has the highest market capitalization at the end wins the top three spots, but the first place winner is the same wallet that bought that token. What I mean is that it could be easy to manipulate the system to get into the top remixes. I could do the same with mine and position myself, but that's not the idea, especially if we're basing it on the content that's shared most, not the currency itself. I know it's not my contest or my money, and you are completely free to choose the winners you want, but in my opinion, the winners should be chosen based on the quality of the writing and whether their remix is based on the content of the original, not on market capitalization.
I don't disagree per se, but how do you define quality?
Yes, this is complicated because quality is very subjective. The reality is that when it comes to written content, everyone has their own essence, and every piece of writing has its own quality, unless the content is very brief. So, thinking about it carefully, defining it by quality would be very complicated. A good metric would be by number of readers, but these are just thoughts and ideas, although I understand that the least complicated way is by market capitalization in each piece of writing.
I m on my 3rd draft over a week and hoping this will be my debut on paragraph. โญ๏ธ

@jpfraneto.eth the "sign in with farcaster" QR code, where are you loading the miniapp? Is that on Farcaster iOS? Very odd bug, we can investigate
it happens if i click the "remix" button. then the next screen tells me to login. then the privy modal opens. and i click the farcaster button. and it shows me the qr. the ux doesn't understand the context well enough to recognize that im already logged in
Thx also agreed all these coins with the same name get confusing vs just merging them. 11111 $betr
