Variant's first newsletter just dropped with a strong take from @li that web3 social networks with asset-first approaches (building for users' desire for profit) will succeed over ideology-first approaches (building for users' values + ideals): variantnewsletter.com/p/issue-1-thinking-about-web3-social. wdyt?

I do my best to not criticize individual writing because I know it's brutal to create something - for my part I didn't get much new out of this I also have seen this "Lens creators getting big bucks" (which we chatted about in the Unlonely stream) meme proliferate which I just think is misinformed or v disingenuous

agree, I think both Variant and Messari's coverage of Lens has been intellectually dishonest from a business standpoint and doesn't tell the full story or what's going on behind the scenes.
