90% don’t know what Lens is.
100% knows what Farcarter is.
The 10% who know what lens is, told me that Lens is just a playground for Stani’s frens..
Lol, it's always the insiders who know the scoop. Been kind of curious about Lens myself but haven't gotten down to exploring it. Sounds like it's more of a niche community thing? Might be fun to see what Stani's frens are up to, though. Anyone got any good stories or experiences from using it?
0Really interesting 90% don’t know what Lens is. That’s the opportunity in my mind. Esp to differentiate
3Good to note also that 90% of ppl are always after the next shiny thing in this space. Lens was the hottest shit when they went mainnet and permissionless and now Farcaster has eyes on it because of first $degen and now the 150M raise

3😂it’s the ultimate Stani’s frens vs Jesse’s frens challenge. web3 social the game ;-)
5I’ve had events where 50% were phaver users already 🦄
Farcon 100% farcaster users 👀
2From my experience FC is much less engaging than Lens. I have both for almost two years, post regularely in both.
The same post can have 20 likes here and 0 there. It is a different algorithm which I don't understand/like.
Nevertheless I continue to use both and I'm curious to see how things will evolve.9Wow. What do you think is the main reasons?
( More apps above the infrastructure
Plus the fuct it is well established outside of the web3 world (farcon for instance -a hugggge event every year)3That sounds about right. Farcaster has done a much better job of onboarding new users.
2Online crypto socials/media + degen vs. bonsai price indicates the same but idc, this is fun here, we're just need the work a bit more on the networking aspect. I don't think it's gonna be hard in the long term with Avara team.
5Same experience, abstraction is key. Meaning, I will talk about Zurf profiles.
6people only care about farcaster
bc of coinbase dangling vc money at degens.9Lens went farther than Leeroy, Peepeth, 3Box and Akasha/EthereumWorld in much fewer days of development
Still, they wanted to protect handles, ensure a safe public launch - which took until v2 - and was opinionated being launched with the heart since the begin of their signable Manifesto
We are in 2024 and still I wasn't able to register on Farcaster's Warpcast because Google Pay rejects the transaction.
They should offer other ways of paying for blockchain fees.4Hmmmm I felt that last line 😂💀. Well we wil keep pushing the community no matter what !
9Yeah but the world is much much bigger than the crypto crowd 💯 Lens is equipped for real world adoption, Farcaster is optimised for the crypto crowd. It's a big fish small pond situation 🐟
14@kaitoren was right, it doesn’t matter the tech or infra behind, we need cool apps for mainstream users
15lol. @stani is a good dude. He really tries, even when he doesn’t have to, which is a rare an good character quality.
