- By enabling any developer or team to build their own recommendation algorithm, the combination of easier to leverage AI primitives, open protocols, and immutable public data are paving the way for a more personalized and superior user experience (UX) for social applications.
With apps like Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram people are stuck with the given recommendation algorithm without any choices or options other than leave the platform if they don't like it.
For instance a lot of changes have happened with the Twitter recommendation algorithm. People have complained that they see a lot more clickbait, but the only other option is just the "Following" feed or to leave.
In theory, because web3 and blockchain data is public, developers and teams could build their own recommendation algorithms. I said "in theory" because in the past this was not really a thing as this type of system did not really exist before.
We're now starting to see some great alternative recommendation algorithms emerge and become available in the @LensProtocol ecosystem, and apps are already starting to pick them up!
Here are a few teams working on this from various angles (not inclusive of all teams):
1. Karma3Labs - Is a ranking and reputation infrastructure using the EigenTrust algorithm. It enables developers to curate a ranking and recommendation system for their apps based on on-chain data.
https://karma3labs.com
2. Whitebox from @kozlovchad - Is an open protocol to consume, develop and collaborate on modular, composable, and transparent algorithms, owned by the developers.
I think of this as something like an NPM for recommendation algorithms
https://whitebox.build
3. @madfinance - creating various recommendation algorithms like a suggested follows API + "For You" API and enabling optionally financial mechanisms allowing users to boost themselves
https://creators.madfinance.xyz
We have a handful more that are also available or being worked on.
Watch this space! It is one of the key differentiators between private, proprietary, and sometimes predatory social networks of the past, and modern social platforms like @LensProtocol

- We're proud to introduce Lens Improvement Proposals (LIPs). This open, collaborative process will guide the future development of Lens Protocol.
Taking inspiration from the successful Ethereum Improvement Proposals (EIPs) and Aave Improvement Proposals (AIPs), LIPs takes a step towards decentralized governance. The LIPs process will foster an inclusive, transparent and collaborative environment.
You will find how to participate in LIPs in the Lens Protocol’s GitHub repository, which streamlines the community participation process. It gives anyone the chance to submit proposals, and promotes open discussion.
Let's dive into the first three proposals that are live today:
LIP-0: Establishing an Open Governance Model. A process where the Lens community can propose improvements to Lens Protocol. From the submission of proposals to transparent discussions — we aim to foster an open, collaborative, and inclusive decision-making governance model.
LIP-1: Open Standards for Algorithms. A proposal to establish open standards for algorithms — based on the open Lens data layer — that will encourage the development of third-party algorithms, diverse experiences and provide user choice.
LIP-2: Open Standards for Metadata. An initiative to establish metadata standards for Lens Protocol, promoting transparency, interoperability, and user empowerment.
Take a deep dive into LIPs in our latest blog: https://mirror.xyz/lensprotocol.eth/8uxN9fMYBOqyDW5yZ6O3DDdOLEv1jJtxcw9qk4c4wgM
LIPs are our next step in enabling community involvement in shaping Lens Protocol's future.

- Things just got faster.
Introducing Media Snapshots on the Lens API.
This new feature takes snapshots of media content from profiles and publications, which leads to faster loading times for users.
Applications can now enjoy the luxury of increased efficiency. This enhancement comes with the addition of two new fields to the 'MediaSet' type: 'onChain' and 'optimized'. They will each respectively hold the original uploaded content and the snapshotted content.
The type of content being snapshotted is:
• Profile pictures (not NFT PFPs)
• Profile cover photos
• Publication content under metadata media (including covers)

- おはよう @ethglobal.lens Tokyo! 🇯🇵
The Lens team is on the ground and we're so excited to bring the social layer of web3 to Japan.
We have $20k in prizes for the hackathon!
🥇 1st $5k
🥈 2nd $3k
🥉 3rd $2k
🎖️ 10 best Lens Integrations for nullk each
Lens is web3 native meaning it’s simple to build native payment features directly into your app. Mirrors, collects, follows and comments allow creators to monetize their content directly to the user, without intermediaries, and in a permissionless way. Premium content, token-gated rewards, tipping, crowdfunding, subscription services, referral, and affiliate programs are just a handful of the countless types of integrations you can build with Lens.
Looking for some inspiration?
- We're still in the early innings of AI and ML and want to see more devs utilizing the latest innovations from OpenAI, Replicate, HuggingFace, LangChain, and Dust just to name a few. Imagine the possibilities when web3 social intersects with AI/ML 🤯
- You could use AI/ML to analyze a user’s feed over the course of a few days and condense it into a single view so they can visit less often and still be up to date with what’s the latest and greatest.
- Or create a social learning platform that uses AI to create personalized learning paths for users. It could assess users' knowledge levels, recommend relevant learning materials, and provide real-time
feedback and guidance.
- You could use Lens profiles specifically for your gaming identity. Imagine your in-game items and high scores attached to your Lens profile and you curate a Lens leaderboard for the community.
- Bust a move! Build an app that lets users participate in virtual dance-off challenges. Users can record and upload their dances, challenge friends or random users, and compete for the elusive best dancer on Lens title 💃🕺
- Build a community app for @galverse.lens on Lens that utilizes the Splits for Collects feature (https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/create-post-typed-data#multirecipientfeecollectmodule) and you'll help with the development of the anime, character design, story, and more.
- Imagine using the Collect module for more exclusive content such as event ticketing.
- How about building a governance forum specifically for Lens users? gm DAOs 🤔
- Calling all pet lovers out there. Create a social platform where users can showcase their pets' talents, tricks, and general awesomeness. Users can upload videos of their pets and participate in virtual talent shows, with categories like "Best Trick," and "Funniest Moment"
- Want to bridge that gap from web2 social to web3? Build a site that shows you the most followed people that have used a site (maybe the 🐦 app) or help users connect their web2 account and generate a ZKP for mapping.
- Or a Lens creator dashboard for tracking post analytics (engagement, collects, revenue, etc) and helping you find your 1000 true fans.
- Maybe you find yourself collecting every post from one of the 100k profiles already on Lens. Create a module to “subscribe” to someone and automatically collect everything the post within certain parameters.

- Lens Protocol is open, anyone who has a profile can have permissionless access regardless of what application they are using. We believe in supporting content creators and followers who create an engaging environment for everyone.
Some applications use gasless and signless transactions, and we have now introduced eligibility requirements for these features.
While everyone is eligible by default, accounts with low-signal engagement will not be eligible. You can read more about our requirements here. https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/gasless#eligibility-requirements
We are also testing filtering low-signal notifications for a better user experience. https://docs.lens.xyz/docs/users-notifications#api-details
At Lens, we believe that Web3 social should create a better experience than before, by using blockchain technology. We are always experimenting with ways to better our user experience by filtering low-signal profiles and bots. Let’s keep experimenting, our DMs are open for feedback 🧪
