I guess your login bumps the user to Warpcast, and Apple doesn't like that you need Warpcast to function? Seems like either you need (1) your own login system, or (2) become a Farcaster client. @dwr.eth any advice for @haole here? https://imagedelivery.net/BXluQx4ige9GuW0Ia56BHw/7e509cc0-dd80-4c7d-cc38-6a8d6b19ff00/original ](https://warpcast.com/ashoat.eth/0x737aae31) 3\. **Jessepollak** sparked a conversation around working with $NOUNS.

Who’s in?

The amount of warps can be experimented upon. This gives a clear path for new users to acquire a power badge through the ability to get their posts some visibility.
