Congrats Lens team! Keep on shipping.
Honestly... they just need to let people in. I've seen lots of frustration from folks that are curious to try it out but can't get access.
One more comment / feature request @stani.lens -- is there a way to remove followers? I see a bunch of people following me that are clearly bots, but cannot find a way to remove or block them.
Thanks for focusing on this. Think bots are the biggest issue with Lens currently.
Look forward to the podcast!
My only addition: introduce a safe harbor for protocols that are sufficiently decentralized (and lay out guidelines for what "sufficiently decentralized" means).
A protocol that is immutable (with no upgrade keys) literally cannot be regulated, and thus shouldn't be regulated.
I agree, though need to be really thoughtful about the parameters. I've seen a bunch of bot accounts that would "pass" by most metrics -- lots of engagement which seems genuine (until you give it a critical look), lots of followers/followed, etc.
Yeah, unfortunately the bots have been terrible.
This is awesome, thanks for sharing.
