frames-devs

We're considering ending support for v1 Frames in 3 months. 

Why? 
- It has little usage; most devs moved to miniapps 
- It simplifies the protocol for client builders + new devs. 
- It simplifies the UX for users. Only one type of "app" in the feed. 

Over 90% of devs we polled support this decision.

Saw this coming a mile away. In hindsight it was inevitable.

Gonna miss Frames v1 / Open Frames, but from a product / maintenance perspective I get why it’s easier to get rid of it entirely.

I sure hope mini-apps are here to stay though. The last thing devs want in a tech platform is a graveyard of sunset experiments left in its wake.

Most developers migrated from v1 to v2 / mini apps?

> Yes, just thinking long-term and hoping this isn’t setting a precedent for a future sunset / ongoing maintenance burden.

We're always going to be evolving the developer legos.

The important thing is focus on what people are using.

Mini-apps in their current form are definitely better because even if all the clients stop supporting the protocol, at least you still have a standalone web app.
