Lenny wants to help you understand the basics of the Lens Protocol! 🌿

Many newcomers have recently joined the Lens ecosystem, and here is a brief FAQ about the Lens Protocol! 👇
1️⃣ What is Lens Protocol?
The Lens Protocol is a Web3 social graph on the Polygon blockchain. It empowers creators to own the links between themselves and their community, forming a fully composable, user-owned social graph.
2️⃣ What is a Lens Profile NFT?
Profiles on Lens are represented by a Profile NFT, the main object in the Lens Protocol. Owning this NFT gives you control over your social graph and content. Individual addresses own ProfileNFTs, and an address can have multiple ProfileNFTs. Atm, only invited users can claim a Lens Profile NFT.
3️⃣ What differentiates the Lens Profile NFT from other on-chain IDs?
Profile NFTs can post content. They contain the history of all your posts, quotes, mirrors, comments, and other content. All your social data are linked to your Lens Profile NFT.
4️⃣ What is a Lens Handle?
Lens Handles are like usernames on a social network, for example, @stani @punkess or @jessyjeanne
5️⃣ Do I need to pay a gas fee while posting on Lens apps?
No, if you enable your Lens Manager while using any @lens apps like @orbapp @kaira @phaver or @t2world you don’t need to pay a fee or sign on-chain transactions for posting, commenting, liking, etc.
6️⃣ Do I need different Lens Profile NFTs to use different Lens apps?
No. With a single Lens Profile NFT, you can explore all Lens apps. Each app is a client offering different UX and benefits, and they all feed from the Lens Protocol. Your posts, comments, etc., from different apps, can be seen in other apps.
7️⃣ What is the collect feature?
You can post collectible posts. Set a price, supply, or time limit with advanced settings. It's a new way of on-chain social engagement!
