Hey anon, hey!

Hey @lensprotocol family! We are excited to announce our brand new home, hey.xyz!

Why the change?

Because we wanted to re-introduce ourselves as the one-stop shop for all things Lens. we will be continuing to showcase the latest features from the protocol while listening to our community for what they want to see next.

We will be exploring communities, open actions, and whole new ways you, your NFTs, and the DAOs you’re a part of can benefit from web3 social powered by Lens. This is just the beginning, so thanks for stopping by, and saying hey!

Collect this first ever post by Hey (24 hours!)

The Collect module on the Lens API is adding new features: 

• Put time limits on any Free Collect 

• Define the supply and/or end date for exclusive Collects (Free or Paid)

Try it out today on @lenster.lens. Coming soon to @buttrfly.lens, @orbapp.lens, and other apps across the Lens ecosystem.

1.22.0 - 16th November 2022

Big release today, you can now gate your publications with access criteria. Remember your publications itself is an NFT so you can gate a publication so only people who collect can see it, same with your follow graph. Very excited in what you guys build with this.

Alongside this we have also exposed an endpoint to allow you to upload videos and audios, as we have seen uploading those via IPFS and serving them can cause them to buffer and be slow. Our API endpoint will upload it and transcode it serving that file to all people who call the API. Behind the scenes it will be pinning it to IPFS so on-chain state is still decentralized.

• feat: profile interests
• feat: gated publications powered by LIT - docs.lens.xyz/docs/gated
• feat: add 3 new providers to gasless
• feat: if no default profile picked select the first created one to expose more profiles
• feat: ability to upload audio and videos via the API and it be pinned for you on ipfs but the transcoded version will be served for better audio and video experience - docs.lens.xyz/docs/media
