last week, i had a great conversation with Yana Welinder @yanabana, founder of @Kraftful (acquired by @Amplitude_HQ) and now building yanabana (the first ai-native fashion brand)

Starting to like this top area a bit more. That dropdown for the streaks has gotta be my favorite thing in a bit.
Not sure about the liquid glass on the top there... but worth a shot.
