- π Decline in Lens Protocol Activity: A Wake-Up Call π
Hello, everyone, dear members of Lens Protocol. Today, I want to discuss a topic that concerns us all: the recent decline in activity on Lens.
π Observed Data π
Over the past few months, I've noticed some concerning trends:
π Posts have decreased by 21.65%
π Comments have dropped by 12.87%
π Mirrors have fallen by 28.71%
(Compared to the previous 30 days)
These numbers are alarming for the platform and all of us who contribute to its ecosystem.
β What's Happening? β
I don't have all the answers, but I would like to start a conversation about some of the possible reasons behind this decline:
- Has the quality of the content changed?
- Are new platforms capturing the users' attention?
- Is having a waiting list affecting the activity of the network?
I remember @stani mentioning that social networks are a party, and we need to take care of the participants at the party. Are we getting bored with this party?
π£ Call to Action π£
This is a call to the community and the developers to discuss and address these concerns.
We are all here because we believe in the potential and vision of Lens Protocol. To keep this ecosystem alive, it's crucial that we tackle these issues head-on and collectively.
