We're going to say goodbye to Frames v1 on July 31st.

When we announced miniapps (v2 frames) back in November, we promised to support the old standard for 6 months, to make the transition as smooth as possible. 

Now that time has come. Most people are building and using miniapps which we are excited about, and the old frames are slowly disappearing from the timeline. 

What happens next?
On July 31st, we'll slowly stop rendering frames and cast actions in feed. Both these features are seeing little to no usage. In the coming weeks, we may also make changes to make cast actions less prominent in the UI to make space for some new features we're working on. 

Why is removing frames important?
It's a lot of work to support older standards and slows down the team from shipping things that people want. No new teams are building frames anymore, and existing teams have largely moved over to miniapps.

Farcaster is growing.
Therefore apps are growing to.

At the beginning it was easy to find your apps.

Now with so many apps it takes me a while to find the app I want to use.

Even, some times I miss and open the trending apps but the app I want not necessarily is there and memory tries to search by position.

@dwr.eth there is a feature request I want  to ask that solves this.

Either add the mini apps on the search bar. (Currently channels and users)

Or display mini apps from most to least used by the user.

Or a search bar inside mini apps.
