- Setting up a new place for video recording. What do you think?
- “Pac-Man”
I had some spare modeling clay and clearly too much time on my hands.
- How did you celebrate a Star Wars day? 😜
- Are you a weirdo like me?
- Lens Full-Time content creator, is it possible? Let's fail 🙏
- GM Lens 🙏
- What are your thoughts on this?
- Nowadays Lens looks a bit like Zora converted into a social feed. It's good for visual artist, creators and musicians but I believe we'd need some more diversity. I have to admit that it's hard to find a good conversation or an informative post in this current feed. Ofc, why would I write a post about anything if I can post a photo/artwork/anything for 1k-10k-20k $BONSAI. I understand this trend well, but this is not sustainable in the long run. This is not the direction we initially wanted to go. Don't be Zora, be Lens!
- From introvert to content creator: Step 1
Keep trying and experimenting to see what clicks.
This is one of the most terrifying things I get to do.
- Why are some games so hard to quit? 🎮💥
• Getting better – that's development.
• Hitting goals – those are accomplishments.
• Challenges – we crave to overcome them.
Each win, each level up, feels awesome.
- Why do we game?
It's often because we feel part of something bigger than ourselves, where our choices and actions have meaning.
This sense of purpose can be missing in education or life in general. 🎮✨
- Playing games solo doesn't mean you're alone.
In MMO or multiplayer games, random groups and missions inject that unexpected thrill of social interaction.
Ever found a lasting friend on a quest? 🌐🤝
- Teaching someone your favorite game can be as thrilling as playing it yourself.
Ever felt that buzz? 🎮🤝
- I just claimed my $BONSAI reward on @lens/orb!
- Stepping into my own Metaverse for the first time.
Could this be where education is headed? 🌐📚
- Learning every day 🌱
In the metaverse future, it's time to learn how to build one.
Diving into a 10-hour course on crafting an Overcooked game replica.
What's on your learning agenda today? 🎮🛠️
- Did you know that we love to fail?
Sounds strange, but failure is where we learn the most. Each mistake 🚫📚 is a lesson, pushing us to grow and adapt.💪
- Play me
- Ever wondered why games captivate us so?
They tap into our love for challenges, our thrill in achievement, and our joy in social connection.
Now, imagine applying these game principles to learning. 🌟
- 🚀 Level Up Learning! 🌟
Imagine a classroom where every challenge is a quest, and every mistake, a chance to try again.
This is the power of gamification. 🎲
- Transfered handles don't apear in the lens.xyz and hey list of the new wallet. But visible on the old wallet. Please advise
- Learn something new every day - you never know when those skills will come in handy. 🛠️📚

- ✨ a little 'about me' ✨
saw so many new frens joining since lens went permissionless, so I thought it would be a good time to do an introduction :)
I'm amber, an artist and photographer based in NYC (but I was born and raised in Taiwan 🇹🇼). I've always been very passionate about visual art and experimented with various media, both traditional and digital. Aside from sketching portraits and imaginary creatures for fun, I also love learning different design tools, both 2D and 3D, to bring my creative vision to life.
I fell in love with film photography in the summer of 2021 when I was traveling abroad, and have been sharing my work constantly ever since. It allows me to tell stories through photographs that resembles my own thoughts and emotions - and when I do capture moments with a digital camera, I always play with the color palette to further convey the mood and solidify the narrative.
here are some links where you can view my work:

Last but not least, here's a photo of me and my art 🖤 you can collect this post with 3 $BONSAI
- Hi from NFT Paris! 🎨
Look for the bat 🦇 and come say hi!
#NFTParis
- What a day at #nftparis 🌟 Running around, chatting with people, and discovering the incredible businesses they're involved in.
Found tons of new ventures and folks utilizing blockchain.
Fingers crossed I run into you tomorrow @lens/stani 🤞
- Would love to meet lens devs at NFT Paris. 🥰
- Going through my notes and presentation, feeling that "never fully ready" vibe.
For an introvert, stepping out in public and sharing isn't easy, but it's time to present Mind Attic in person! 😜
- Gearing up for NFT Paris! 🎨🔥
If you're there, come say hi! 👋
#NFTParis
- On my way to Paris, I thought I had it all.
Yet, this morning, as I was adding final touches, it hit me - no travel adapter meant no phone, no laptop, no life.
Panic mode: activated. Ended up sprinting through Paris's unknown streets for an hour and a half, all for that. 🤦♂️🦆
- Hi #lens
Can you keep lens.handles in one wallet while allowing other wallets to post and reply?
Please advise 🙏
- GM! Crafting Pitch Deck 3.0 for Mind Attic.
Quite the start to the year! 🚀
- Dear @lens/nilesh and @lens/orbapp, version 2.0 is an absolute masterpiece, truly embodying next-generation social media.
Its functionality is exceptional. I find myself eager to scroll, push buttons, and engage with it. Thank you for your incredible work!
- Happy Saturday, everyone! 🌟
This week was a rollercoaster. Completely unaware of the ticking time bomb. Then it dawned on me: deadlines are crucial.
I'd been delaying Mind Attic's pitch deck. Suddenly, Tuesday arrived, and reality hit hard. I had only 14 hours left to submit my funding application. Panic mode: activated. The countdown was on.
A marathon, possibly the longest day of my life. The world was quiet, asleep, while I was there, eyes wide at 3:00 AM, finalizing a 20-page deck, my heart and soul in every slide.
Transitioning from a silent hobby no one understands to potentially a successful, innovative business made clear? Intense? Absolutely. Terrifying? You bet. Worth it? With out a doubt.
Builders, how did you get funded? Share your story and guidance.

'Wealth's Silence' Speculative Flash Fiction on Mind Attic by Andrej Klimov
In the warmth of a perfect summer day, the world seemed at peace, but not for John. With silver hair framing a face marked by time, he sat, tears blurring his vision as he clutched a digital frame. He hugged it close, a gesture of farewell to a part of himself, and exhaled a shaky breath, a mix of regret and resolve.
John’s study was a haven of old-world charm with a pulse of the new, where books lined the walls, and technology whispered secrets of wealth and power. He approached his computer, the screen lighting up to reveal his dilemma: "Investment Options." Three choices glared back at him.
The first option offered John a way to enrich the public realm, especially in education and science. Yet, it promised little to no financial return for himself. The second, highlighted as "Recommended," promised modest gains but with benefits for society — a balance of gain and give. The third, marked "Popular," dangled the allure of immense personal wealth but warned of potential peril to the public.
John paused momentarily at the first option. With disgust and a hasty flick, he tapped the "don't show this again" box, effectively erasing the altruistic path from his sight.
John hovered between the remaining choices, his face etched with the turmoil of conscience. For a fleeting moment, the second option glowed invitingly, offering a rare opportunity for a win-win. Yet, his eyes darted around, scanning for any judgmental gaze. Finding none but feeling the weight of unseen eyes, he gravitated toward the third option. With eyes closed, he tapped the screen repeatedly.
Stares at The digital frame, he held so dearly. A money graph — a live pulse of his fortune — surging upwards. John's eyes sparkled with a mix of triumph and madness. In a moment of euphoria, he jabbed at the second option, a feeble nod towards redemption. But the graph twisted sideways, the money frozen in place.
In a rush of desperation, John hit "don't show this again" for the second option. The screen shifted, the third option sliding into the now-vacant space. Then, a new, fourth option appeared, ominous with its grim warnings. It showed a stark image: on one side, society in chaos and flames; on the other, a mountain of wealth.
John tapped the fourth option, again and again, and again…
Time passed. Now standing, a smile was fixed on John's face as he admired the view from the spacious balcony. A sigh of satisfaction and relief escaped him.
He moved towards the bed, preparing for sleep. Casting a last glance at the cherished digital frame on the nightstand, its graph now soared skyward, declaring him the wealthiest man. Gently, he hugged and kissed the frame goodnight, then pressed a button on the remote.
As John settled into the single bed, the night's silence was broken by the heavy clank of steel shutters rolling down. The room's artificial daylight began to fade, obscured by the descending metal. The scene shifts, revealing John's expansive view as just a screen showing "Happy World" scenes.
Our view widens to reveal a sweeping panorama of the city, John's residence marginalized to one side. The quiet is shattered by distant gunfire, the air filled with intermittent screams and the urgent wail of sirens.
In the distance, flashes light up the horizon, casting eerie shadows as mushroom clouds of fire bloom, one after another, in a relentless sequence of destruction.
Then, silence.
The sky, painted in apocalyptic hues, is mirrored on the steel shutters of John's impenetrable bunker. Outside, the world succumbs to turmoil, a stark contrast to the serene darkness enveloping John, the wealthiest man, now asleep in his silent, sealed-off sanctuary.
