Blockchain-based social media platform Lens has released its latest version, aiming to provide a decentralized alternative to traditional social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter. The platform, founded by the creators of DeFi giant Aave, allows users complete ownership of their social identity, data, connections, and audiences. With the introduction of application building blocks, Lens enables users to create decentralized newspapers with thousands of contributors. The platform also offers features such as information feeds and curated content groups, giving users the ability to create decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). Lens aims to address concerns around AI-driven bias by allowing users to choose their algorithms and have more control over their information consumption. With the close alignment of Elon Musk's X platform with the government of Donald Trump, Lens sees an opportunity to attract users looking for social media alternatives.
