- Introducing Orb Communities! 🪐
The Community Layer of Web3.
Orb Communities are composable and interoperable, built on top of the @LensProtocol.lens.lens. It makes it easy to integrate community features across Lens apps.
Today, we are thrilled to present the first iteration of Orb Communities, a vision that has been with us since we embarked on the Orb journey a year ago.
These communities are a fundamental part of the composable and interoperable community layer of web3.
User-owned communities empower people by decentralizing authority and making every individual a crucial stakeholder in the community's direction and evolution.
This marks a significant shift from traditional, centralized communities, where only a select few make decisions.
We believe that @LensProtocol Profiles are much more than NFTs.
At the core of our Communities membership lies the ERC-6551 with Lens Profiles turned into Token Bound Accounts (TBA).
Communities are much more vibrant and engaging when built together.
We warmly welcome developers to build upon it! Check out our Mirror for more https://mirror.xyz/orbapp.eth/s5HNwiDup4sw2nbDi8FgZmlcpR6qIulTsW5qh6KRT0I

- **🌿 Rooting in Web3 — day 8 Introducing** [**@madfinance.lens**](https://twitter.com/madfiprotocol)
\
**What is Mad Finance?**\
@madfinance.lens is the ad protocol for web3 social! 💸 \
What does this really mean? 🤔 Let us walk you through it.\
\
First, we need to understand that, today, how Twitter and Facebook are free for all of us to use because the feed space is already being paid for by advertisers. But there is a little catch here, the biggest asset to these social media is actually the USERS! 🤯\
\
Why? Because imagine if no users use Facebook and Twitter, there will be no advertisers willing to place their ads on their platforms. But because they're operated in Web2, these social media control how the profits are generated and everything is going into their pocket. 😭\
\
Thus, similar to us, together with @madfinance.lens, we're committed to change this. Instead of giving all the profits generated from users to these big social media, we're connecting the profits back to users!\
\
In @madfinance.lens, they are building a suite of products in the form of Lens modules, tools for campaign creation + distribution, and payouts via Superfluid money streams. This is real innovation! 🤯\
\
If any of you are brands and creators, do join them today! \
Their first product will be carrying the idea of Lens Follow NFTs to the next level - allowing influencers and brands to utilize them as marketing campaigns! \

- **Rooting in Web3 — day 4 Introducing Lenstube 🎥**\
\
**What is Lenstube?** \
Lenstube is a decentralized video-sharing social media platform, built with @LensProtocol 🌿. \
What is that really mean? 🤔 \
Let me walk you through it!\
\
In Web3, it is all about decentralized this and decentralized that. So in this context, what it really means is that a video being decentralized is being uploaded to "IPFS".
\
**What is IPFS?**\
"IPFS" or InterPlanetary File System is a protocol and P2P network for storing and sharing data in the distributed file system. This allows the same content could be retrieved from anywhere! In simple meaning, every video uploaded to [Lenstube](https://twitter.com/lenstubexyz) is going permanently forever! 🤯\
\
**What Lenstube is solving?**\
One practical major problem Lenstube is solving is a situation that happened to @lofigirl. Just recently, a video by @lofigirl has been "mistakenly" taken down due to "false copyright strikes" by Youtube.\
\
**Be responsible for uploading video to IPFS**\
Well... you might be thinking it is useful and might be quite alarming at the same time. We understand... It is always been a similar situation when a new technology is invented, someone could abuse it or either use it for good.\
\
In order to build an open world, we all have our parts to play and responsibility to ensure good. I'm pretty sure Lenstube already has this regulation in place and continues to improve. In decentralization, no one can't take down what you uploaded, so please be responsible!
