Good evening friends, in spite of the sorrows of my land, I think this year the Christmas spirit is getting to me before its time 🙏
Gm - posted a response on behalf of Lens Labs on this LIP by @zkjew. Hope you like our ideas.
We’re excited to grow together.

If creating a Lens Profile isn’t free. Adoption will never happen. It’s that simple.
Having trouble submitting lips, so here it is:
Simple, make a Lens Profile (not handle) completely free and distributed (no claim nessesary) or to claim for all wallets that have paid $15> in gas with a limited post subsidy. And grant apps that have adopted lens large amounts of free lens profiles (ideally 1M for ones like Orb, buttrfly, Hey, ext.) and grant assistance relevant to setting up gas subsidies for posts.
Force spammers to pay for their own posts and let front ends filter them out, but allow users to have minimal friction when using Lens. Lens has historically struggled due to a creator first mindset leading to an ecosystem of sellers with no buyers or watchers of content.
Truth is everyone is a creator and collector, just some are closer to one or the other, casting a wide net by reducing friction will allow lens to gain the userbase it needs to thrive, the status quo will lead to lens and the ecosystem by extension to be suffocated due to high guardrails (for valid reasons) that are hindering both its growth and anyone who wishes to build on it.
Lens apps have some of the best UX in the entire space, but are tasked to survive until the protocol is ready for a volume of user adoption. So, maximizing a light at the end of the tunnel, and providing more transparency for builders as to when users will be more readably acquirable is essential for a superb V3 launch. This can be done simply by lowering the threshold for user acquisition at V3 launch.
Discuss.
Panda wants Lens profile adoption:
I am once again, asking @lens to consider a blocked social graph for bots, so users can leverage Degree of Seperation logic to block bots in their algorithm vicinity and third parties can leverage the data 🙂↔️
It's interesting to see how @lens native tokens like @bonsai and @pointless have become key drivers for transferring value from one user to another.
