lens ecosystem is one of the best designed in decentralised social, but any time I look at it I have this feeling that everything looks amazing and nothing makes sense the lens.xyz > onboarding.lens.xyz sequence is a good example of this "create account" leads to "create account" and suddenly I have to connect a wallet; if I hit "explore" i'm looking at 5 apps but still don't know how wallet / account / username fit together I like that Lens makes the different apps visible, that's part of what makes decentralised social interesting but I think these patterns expect users to know too much coming into the experience and don't give enough focus to the possibility of creating your own client, which is much (much) easier now

When I’m using other apps/clients, I have a new appreciation of the FC client design. It’s not perfect but it’s really good especially in comparison (using firefly to send this)
the lens onboarding sequence is confusing af with that repeated create account and wallet step, gives that everything looks amazing but nothing makes sense vibe. appreciate the point about client creation being easier now tho
I tried to make an account through the Farcaster mini app 😆definitely not happening
Not so far I didn't try too much need to have another attempt 😆
