U have one of the best geopolitical news accounts on here. You should consider building a news mini app

Thanks Jack. How does one do that? What does it mean?

Not everything needs an app imo. I like finding your stuff organically in my feed. 

However, for your die-hard followers, you could make a mini-app where you post your articles and link to interesting articles. You could also monetize this in various ways (pay $0.50 for your editorials, photos, etc). Push notifications for big events. 

If you have any coding experience, you can vibe-code a basic mini-app in a weekend and iterate from there.

a miniapp is basically a regular website that has the farcaster miniapp sdk javascript sprinkled into it with some metadata to help it open as a "native" miniapp inside farcaster and get additional context about the farcaster user, send farcaster actions from it, swap tokens, etc.

i honestly don't think this would help at this time unless there's special functionality you're looking to add with this extra functionality.
