Long time no see my dear friends!
I have taken a much-needed month-long vacation (and sadly broke my 2-year weekly newsletter streak) to recharge, but now I am finally back with this update-packed issue that gets you up to speed on all that happened in Nouns in February.
We have a lot to get through, so buckle up (and don’t forget to subscribe)!

NIce one @maty 🫡 Love to see your newsletter in /frames and @paragraph 🙏 Are you stopping the substack one? Cheers
I was thinking about migrating because of the awesome Frame addition, and also issues with Twitter embeds in Substack :) Just trying it out, might import all substack subscribers later.
Awesome! I RC again to make sure it shows up on the channel 🫡
Can we get a Mint option? You could also check out what @ccarella.eth is doing with all the latest tools. Studio2 on Hypersub, Charmverse... it's hard to catch up, man... 😆

love your work as always, my honest review: I much prefer the "online" version :) much easier with consitency of sizing, spacing, and being able to click links etc. Love the experiment but if i had the choice id personally always pick an email or webpage version over a frame (as it is so far) 🙏 🫡 ⌐◨-◨
Yea this is my thinking as well, the frame is still great if only for the in-app subscribe button, perhaps a thread version of the newsletter + frame in the end would be the best 🤔
Thread is an interesting idea
love this format of nouns news in a fartcaster frame. Stay in my feed eating popcorn 🍿. Easy for me to leave comments below. small, bite sized pieces in the frames. 10/10 please disseminate more info in the same medium
👆 @roundsbot
love the “Read Inline”
