- **Nifty Island airdrop campaign just entered wave 2!! ๐**
I'm actually more excited about the new game mode and assets available to claim with blooms.
Also, if you were not elegible to play the game in wave 1, now you can join with invite codes!!
Let me know if you want one, I reserved a few for the Lens community ๐ฑ
- Oh something just happened here โ
cc @lens/hey
- I love that Lens has this network power of making real people dreams come true.
Zo is one of those who deserves it ๐
If you don't know her palettes, go check it NOW!
- New artist I've just discovered and am obsessed with!
O'Dwyer, someday I want to have your art on my wall. I mean it.
- It's not everyone's job in this space to "build" something. We need it all: the creators, the thinkers, the bored, the curious, the weirdos, the stewards of governance, the regens and degens. It's all so needed. Don't get discouraged. Keep. Going.
- ๐๐๐๐
- Pointless is ON!
- After days of intense work moving out to a new appartment, I've decided to schedule a spa day for Daniel and I so we could have a couple hours of massage and some relaxation.
While going upstairs, I saw this gourgeous tree.
A tree is just a big bonsai, right? ๐ณ
- I absolutely love this.
Great update Lenscan!
Go check your page at https://lenscan.io/
- Moving out is always stressful, for everyone.
But after the moving out day, I actually enjoy the process of unpacking and start building my new home. It's been hard to work on my projects without a proper Home Office setup so I started from there!
We will have the help of a professional decorator but, for now, I just couldn't work around boxes anymore ๐ฅฒ
I'm accpeting decoration ideas! Maybe a IRL Lens collect on my wall?
- Yes!! Finally started collecting cats with $BONSAI
Omg Hacker is soooo charming! ๐
Where are the bonsai cats??!
- Building on Lens is super fun and u should try it ๐ฅ
- Update on that:
- Family Wallet: Beta not available on Android
- Uniswap: feels much better than Metamask, but I still couldn't collect using Buttrfly
- Rainbow: I used it on PC for a while and honestly didn't like it too much (strict support to other chains), I'll download it later to test it on mobile.
But good news: I finally set my computer up and I'm back to collecting ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ฑ
- I've just moved out to a new apartment, and still haven't had the time to set my computer.
And I can't collect a single cat because it just doesn't work on any mobile app!
Which mobile wallet do u use? Maybe Metamask is the problem.
- It's cat time!! ๐ป
This weekend I will dedicate myself to collecting cats with @lens/bonsai!
Post your best cat picture/illustration/art ๐
(I also need to fulfill my promise of posting the stories of Viola and Hope this weekend)
- This was one of my favorite spaces from the old apartment. A stunning Jiboia plant climbing the wall and drawings from our friends that stopped by.
Now we're carefully removing the Jiboia so I can take to the new place, and I'm thinking about printing a photography of the drawings so I turn into an art.
Good memories ๐ฅฐ
- Moving out lesson learned no1: nails and screws make less mess than tapes ๐ฅฒ
Collect if you feel sorry for my poor soul
- We're moving to a new apartment! This week, we'll be super busy packing and organizing.
While Daniel started to pack his books and clothes, I packed and already brought over the gamer's and builder's best friends.
No one else touches my babies.
- Soju's work is one of the Lenstest things on all Lens community.
A must.
- It's interesting how many job applications ask for people with "outstanding communication skills".
Managers out there: how do you differentiate this from being introverted (or u don't care)?
Applicants: how do you feel about your communication skills?
- Cacau is the most caring and sweet cat ever ๐ป
She sleeps with us on the bed and loves to take a nap on a warm lap ๐ฅฐ
When she was less than 1y old, she felt from one of my bathroom windows 3 floors down!! It's was one of the worst days of my life and I still have nightmares with it. But she didn't break a single nail! Now I put safety nets on every little window and even now she still tries to hop in some adventures ๐คฃ
When she is sleeping in a room and @lens/dduarte and I change to another room, she starts meowing as soon as she wakes up, like she is mad we left her alone lol
All 3 of them are special, and other fun facts about Hope and Viola will come in the following days!
Collect this story with $BONSAI, 10 only!
- Good reading!
A community token is just as strong as its community. The earlier you try to monetize it, the weaker it will be.
It's the community's role to create valuable content to generate demand.
And the community OGs to support creators.
I think $pointless now might have a great future ahead.
- Cozy home @lens/christina ๐
I couldn't fit on the chair though....my ass is too big
- Pets always improve our life ๐
- I decided to expand my Island on Nifty Island to create a Lens Forest. ๐ฑ
It will be a place to showcase Lens collects and make challenges worth prizes! Maybe it can be a separate island in the future, let's see how it goes.
It's still under construction, so let me know what I can't absolutely forget to include in the Lens Forest on Nifty!
- If any women created a Sakura Bonsai sharing with other Lens women, send me here on the comments and I'll collect ๐ฑ
Also thank you for everyone supporting this campaign, this is the true celebration of National Women's day. Like I said, we like chocolates and flowers but this day is about awareness, equal rights, respect and support ๐
I'll remember this.
- ๐ธ๐ชด Celebrate Women's Day with a Sakura Bonsai! ๐ธ๐ชด
Today, take a moment to support the Lens Women you admire. I've designed a Sakura Bonsai template on Lenspost so you can spread your support for Lens Women today (and tomorrow, because I finished this late). The @lens/lenspostxyz team worked tirelessly to integrate $BONSAI in time!
Show your support for these AMAZING women by collecting this post with $BONSAI. The revenue will be shared with them and the Lenspost team!
๐ชด Collect this post with 100 $BONSAI!
I've chosen three incredible women to split revenue, whose contributions to Lens and the broader community have been invaluable:
@lens/cybershakti, for being one of the Lenspost founders and a fearless entrepreneur whom I admire immensely.
@lens/punkess, represented by a "This Week on Lens" post, for being one of the most valuable community members on Lens, always ensuring we're heading in the best direction possible.
@lens/mazemari, the amazing artist behind the "This Week on Lens" art. I never tire of her content, and since I had an extra spot for being the template creator, I wanted to ensure she was included.
๐ Hereโs how you can participate:
๐ Head over to https://app.lenspost.xyz/.
๐ Click on "Templates" > "Community Drops" and choose this template.
๐ Add 2 NFTs made by the Lens Women you think deserve some $BONSAI.
๐ Click on "Share":
๐ Write the title and description.
๐ Click the "Lens" button under "Share on socials".
๐ Activate the "charge for collect" toggle.
๐ Choose your price and set the currency to $BONSAI:
๐ Ensure the revenue splits are correct according to the NFTs you chose! Adjust the percentages accordingly.
๐ Since I designed the template, my name will be there too, but please make my percentage the smallest! Itโs about distributing to as many Lens Women as possible.
๐ Just publish!
Since we can't share revenue among more than four profiles, I couldn't include all the amazing Lens Women here, and there are many! So, head to Lenspost NOW and use this template to gift a Sakura Bonsai to more of us!
๐ธ๐ชด We love flowers and chocolate, but we also love $BONSAI.

- Who are the best Blender artists on Lens?
- The quality of $BONSAI collects is increasing impressively. ๐ฎ
- Got updates on my dashboard!

๐จ Again, please be aware that I'm testing in prod, so it might behave buggy. Everything is open-source so feel free to check everything๐จ
Now, you'll be able to see a list of all handles owned by a "profile" (currently associated with that profile's address). Want one of @lens/stani 's handles? Bid and send him a DM (sorry, Stani), letting him know who you are and why you want that handle. Negotiate peer-to-peer like the Incas used to.
Also, I'm now working on a logged area! I've added handle "link/unlink" functionality, but I'm really excited to organize more interesting data here.
Having so much fun working on this ๐ฅ
- If you didn't know - my cat is crypto degen also ๐โ๏ธ ๐ค๐ฑ
- Interesting idea.
Lens frens, how would you implement this logic?

- Lens is about community building.
- What makes Lens truly amazing is the community. I've met so many builders, creators, users, and supporters during the Lens journey, and one common DNA is that everyone wants to see onchain social adoption and are supporting each other with guidance, discussions and collects. Truly blessed for what we have.

- Hey @lens/lens devs I think there is something wrong with the "OwnedHandles" method.
I've minted a new profile with a new handle (@dataforest). Unlinked the handle. Now, my handle doesn't show up anywhere ๐ฅฒ
The NFT is in my wallet, but the "OwnedHandles" request doesn't return it.
Graphql is fine.
cc @lens/defispartan
- ๐ This LIP deserves more attention!
I strongly believe that Lens apps should create exclusive experiences for users, but regarding communities, it seems the general sentiment is in favor of interoperability.
What are your thoughts?
- Hey @lens/kaira, what's this?
An info button here would be useful!
- GN friends, rest and get ready for another week ๐ธ
- Thanks for the warm welcome @lens/kaira , looking forward to starting exploring
- Done!
Also, if you click on the picture you'll go right to its profile page on Hey in case you want to DM to negotiate its handle ๐บ
- ๐ง **Tool: Lens Profile Checker**
2 days ago my own boyfriend, that lives under my roof, that is into crypto for more than 7 years, was having huge troubles trying to understand if he could buy a new Lens handle or not, if he has to buy a profile along with it, and how to do it.
So I figured it out it indeed needs more clarification so everyone can understand how this works.
To help him out, and all of you, I've quickly spun up a tool that allows you to search for Lens profiles and see the default handle linked to them, and vice versa. With the Opensea links included!
https://lens-profile-checker.vercel.app/
If you're my follower you can collect this post for free so you can always have this tool accessible! Let's collect tools on Lens ๐ฅ
โ ๏ธ A little note: In my rush to bring this to you, I skimped on error handling, so you might encounter some bugs. Please be patient! I'm not a virtuous app developer ๐ซ
- ๐ฑ **Lens Profile x Lens Handles**
A common question I've encountered is the difference between Lens Profiles and Lens Handles. Hereโs a simple breakdown: Both elements are NFTs on the Lens Protocol, but they serve distinct purposes.
**๐ Profiles** are the backbone of your activity, storing your digital identity and content. All publications, followers and Lens activity is related to a Profile.
**โ๏ธ Handles** are the names given to your profiles, designed to be flexible and changeable. They are composed of a namespace (lens only for now) and the name you've chosen (my handle is lens/definn)
Initially, minting on Lens means you're creating both a profile and its first linked handle. However, it's worth noting that you can purchase additional handles at any time and link any of these as the default to your profile, giving you the freedom to evolve your online presence as you see fit.
- It would be amazing for us to recover one of those lists!
When was the last time we've curated that? Any of you know?
- *it's SO nice!
๐คฃ๐คฃ that's probably the most embarrassing typo I've made

๐ For all newcomers, **Welcome to Lens ๐ฑ It's no nice to have you here!**
