Are you referring to collecting posts or something else?

Do you know of a dune dashboard that shows how frequently this feature is used?

Farcaster also has transactions without the overhead of being fully onchain - how does the protocol being onchain make this better?

Genuine questions btw, trying to learn

well, lens has actually onchain onprotocol financial transactions.

It’s not, just using zk because that’s the more recognisable term for validity proofs

Without looking into it at all, if zk = privacy of some user data, that feels like a positive outcome.

from what i understand lens data which is on-chain (posts, user data, social graph, and reactions) is going to move to an evm-based validium blockchain which needs to post state proofs to an L1

am i misunderstanding something?

Reading the blogpost would help. 
Not every state change needs “an evm and zkproofs”

So that you can hide the spammy nfts you get on every follow by just muting an entire network in your wallet.

Devs do something. Token isn’t pumping.
