@benbassler.eth was an absolute pleasure to have on the team. Great product/growth mindset, uber fast shipper, and very easy to work with. But sometimes people just need to follow their dream. (Insert quote from The Alchemist here) Excited to see how /dash progresses!

I recently moved on from my role at @ponder Even though my time there was relatively short (~6 months), I learned and grew an incredible amount, as a builder and a person — definitely the most impactful time of my career so far. What's next? I'm now working on @dashapp full-time with the goal of pushing the video experience on Farcaster to the best it can be. I truly believe that Farcaster's new focus on videos, if done right, will drastically boost the network's long-term growth — my goal with Dash is to help make that happen. It's been extremely fun to be a part of such a great team and contributing to what has become one of the most popular mini apps on Farcaster, thanks @cojo.eth @ba @matthewmorek @etash for the incredible time! 💜

Today was a build day. Here are the results. I’m excited to share a major update to Reply, focused on discovery, user experience, and reliability, all based directly on your feedback. Introducing the New Discovery Homepage The biggest change is a brand new homepage. Instead of just a search bar, you'll now find a curated list of active users, sorted by followers, making it easier than ever to find and connect with key people on Farcaster. I'm incredibly humbled to already see builders like @ahn.eth, @esdotge, @kylepatrick.eth, @push-, @dish, @burrrrrberry and other awesome people on the list. This is a huge step toward making Reply a core piece of Farcaster infrastructure. Quality of Life Upgrades I've also shipped a ton of UI/UX improvements you asked for: - Better Mobile Chat: The reply box now intelligently resizes as you type, and the layout adjusts to your keyboard. No more typing blind. - Clean & Consistent Prices: Large reply prices are now formatted cleanly (e.g., "1M"), and the display is consistent across the entire app. - Back Button Added: I've added a back button to user pages for much smoother navigation. Bug Fixes & What's Next A reliable app is my top priority. I've squashed some critical bugs: - Fixed the "Invalid Price" display error for very large token amounts. - Resolved an issue where special characters in names or messages would break Telegram notifications. A quick note on Search: To make way for the new homepage and ensure a high-quality experience, I've temporarily hidden the search bar. The old system wasn't good enough. I'm rebuilding it from scratch to be much faster and more accurate, and it's my top priority for the next update. Thank you for all the incredible feedback that made this possible. Now, back to work on that search feature.

Here we go, @runn3rr has already set his Reply price. If anyone struggling from unread messages by him, you have a chance to reach out him only for 0.5 USDC. @jessepollak @phil it's time to set Reply price in the app!
