Looks like Lens v2 is a thing. I'd love to see a take from @dwr.eth and the team about some cool ideas that might make for good open standards as web3 social networking starts really taking off. Compatibility would be nice for network effects. https://mirror.xyz/lensprotocol.eth/-hJH-2IYSe56rK7IEdwSI17hUWt-paTyAs1r4Zes0uQ

Well, the way they do follows now is a lot more sane :-D Really embracing ERC-6551 for social profiles is an interesting idea, and extensible delegation of profile activities. Also handle/profile separation is nice. On-chain social network signals, like blocks etc seems like a good direction to go.

Who pays the cost of on-chain follows at 100x the usage?

No idea how they're doing it, but in general I'd like to see a web3 where users pay for it. The same way that people spend $1.15 in gas when they drive to the supermarket, and don't even think about it. IMO subsidized gas is a huge mistake. Thankfully on-chain interactions keep getting cheaper and more accessible.

Iām bearish on having users pay per follow

I get it, friction sucks. You can only subsidize users for so long though. I feel like web3 scales so elegantly because people can truly own their data, and their accumulated micro transactions give their identity tangible value. IMO freeloaders necessitated the predatory value extraction that ruined web2 (ads etc).
