- `getting started` with #lens in 5 steps 🪴 [Dezember 2023 update]
(0 a) maybe consider adding some information about yourself and a pfp to your profile before you start.
(0 b) "hello world" posts get quite some attention ... 😉 . (if you can post something related to what you are interested in ... 🎇 -> People you start following might take a look at your profile and follow if they are interested in the content you share.) Find one great example at the end of the post.
(1) https://lists.inlens.xyz/lists/818891525288558593 *updated* - list of great profiles to start your lens journey ... you will discover a ton, worth following profiles in the communities of people in this list. lists.inlens.xyz/ in general is a great starting point. (new this month: @lens/fileverseio @lens/watchereth @lens/carstenpoetter)
(2) find your twitter contacts on lens: https://inlens.xyz (*) (not everyone with a lens profile, active on twitter, is very active on lens (yet ;-)). Maybe consider connecting with new people, sharing interesting content on lens.)
(3) probably you read this post on @lens/hey . If you are interested in lens mobile apps, @lens/orbapp and @lens/buttrfly are at the moment - imo - the most advanced general purpose lens mobile apps. One of the beautiful things regarding lens is that it doesn't matter which lens app you use, every lens app has access to the same content and social graph.
(4) what you share on lens is stored and publicly available for a very long time. Probably forever. You can hide posts, comments and mirrors. But that's a front-end feature, the data is still available and publicly accessible.
(5) "collects" are a very powerful concept, adding a NFT version of the post to your address (4th symbol below a post on @lens/hey ). Collects can be monetised -> creators can use collect fees to earn money on lens.
one more thing :-) being active, commenting on posts and topics you are interested in goes a long way. Of course there is a chance that your posts will be discovered, commented and mirrored, but you increase the probability of being discovered dramatically with valuable comments. @lens/jeanmi : "be yourself, try to engage with people, sharing images seems to accelerate engagement/growth, people love to 'GM'"
It is quite challenging to get attention, especially for new profiles. A few approaches to get more visibility:
[1] @lens/animators started on lens drawing lens PFPs https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x0108fb-0x75 . Imo still one of the best (high quality) growth hacks I’ve seen on lens yet (0 to 100 followers). Maybe you can think of something inspired by @lens/animators ’ idea based on your talent and skills.
[2] consider joining communities on @lens/orbapp and/or communities on @lens/diversehq (e.g. you can post directly to the @lens/mixtape feed, be active in the #lensfit community or join c/food).
[3] consider contributing content to the weekly @lens/thisweekon highlight series ( https://lenster.xyz/posts/0x01d898-0x04 ) or other content threads like @lens/trustmebro . (Keep an eye on @lens/ryanfox ;-).)
[4] consider participating in campaigns / events on lens like TRIVIATOWN.eth by @lens/prashantbagga or create an event (maybe check out #OPENLENS for reference). (If you plan to create something please feel free to reach out 🤍)
[5] consider joining lens spaces on @lens/buttrfly .
[6] @ profiles you think your content is relevant for or you would like to get input from. Pls be selective and not spammy.
`cover artists of the month`
TYSM @lens/@mchx_ for creating this beautiful getting started cover 🤍🙏.

- GM folks. This shouldn't be in DeFi channel but Stani is here so I will post it here.
I use CT and now LENS to sort people into the groups. Some do art, some shill crap, some know what's going on in the weeds, etc. I hope that you understand.
Now it would be really helpful for me if I can inside the social app create something like "folders" and put different people into different categories. Internally just for myself. And even better if I can give them colours. Than in the future when I see people interacting with "tweets" I know exactly which group of people is interesting into the subject.
What do you think?
- One important thing about building social apps is to iterate and try simple new ideas. Re-use pieces that work well and you don’t want to spend time on (on-boarding, composers, comments etc). Most of the building time should go to the main new experience

- Thank you so much for all your comments and discussion around the "`lens score`" .
**PLEASE SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS** on 3️⃣ 👇
1️⃣ I'll reply to everyone who commented with the profile's score. (starting now :-))
2️⃣ the logic (explained in 3️⃣ :-)) I've used to calculate the score is the initial **version 0.01** and I hope **we'll be able to come up with a far better** "`lens score`" over the coming weeks and several **iterations**.
3️⃣ logic and input data
the score is calculated based on (1) comments vs posts ratio (2) paid collects as collector (3) paid collects as creator.
1 = max score, 0 = min score.
**calculation of the score**
**(**
when comment_post_ratio >= 1 and comment_post_ratio < 10 then 10
when comment_post_ratio >= 10 THEN 5
when comment_post_ratio < 1 and comment_post_ratio >= 0.5 THEN 5
when comment_post_ratio < 0.5 and comment_post_ratio >= 0.1 THEN 1
when comment_post_ratio < 0.1 THEN 0.1
+
when number_paid_collectors > 100 THEN 10
when number_paid_collectors <= 100 AND number_paid_collectors > 20 THEN 5
when number_paid_collectors <= 20 AND number_paid_collectors > 5 THEN 3
when number_paid_collectors <= 5 AND number_paid_collectors > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
+
when number_paid_collected > 100 THEN 10
when number_paid_collected <= 100 AND number_paid_collected > 20 THEN 5
when number_paid_collected <= 20 AND number_paid_collected > 5 THEN 3
when number_paid_collected <= 5 AND number_paid_collected > 0 THEN 1
ELSE 0
)
/ 30
** comment_post_ratio* = number comments / number posts of the profile
** number_paid_collectors* = how many people paid for the profile's collectable posts (as creator)
** number_paid_collects* = number paid collects of the profile (as collector)
4️⃣ data distribution see image attached.
Everyone with a score >= 0.5 is within the top 1.2% - based on v0.01 of the "`lens score`" :-)
(empty score: accounts without comments)
and most important I can't thank @erikamoji.lens and @xavierjo.lens enough who did an INCREDIBLE @ethglobal.lens ETHOnline hackathon and created a project addressing (web 3) social (media) **bot and spam issues** ;-).
