Been a while since I logged onto Farcaster. Excited with the ecosystem that's being developed for decentralised comms. I've been really getting into the Lens Protocol for a citizen science journal platform I've been working on and building on LP has made me realise the beauty of web3 - it's one ecosystem, one address.

Something like Farcaster is a poor utility for scientific journals (at the moment :) while I think the main utility of Lens is "publications" and the metadata attached - hence why I'm building this platform and its DAO on LP. I haven't forgotten about Farcaster, though, and it has great utility for comms and chat :)

What I mean is that on FC it's organised around posts and social media, so it's sort of hard to create a feed of articles that include thinks like connected Jupyter notebooks & datasets. LP has custom modules to enable this Having said that, I am not saying FC is bad, just right now LP is better designed for MY client
