1. DeSo DeSo probably has the best competitive design to attack because of all the information it stores and has acceptable UX, however, I am not a fan of reinventing an L1 and being self dependent on security. However, it has a wonderful array of an app ecosystem.

2. Orbis club Orbis Club goes a little further than DeSo in terms of the multi chain thesis. It allows for the minting and posting from virtually any chain. It reminds me a lot of the whole let’s build an L1 blockchain just to bridge but this time it’s to store all of the future of social media, if it incentivizes the ceramic using restaking of ETH, SOL, and AVAX + I could get behind the design more than any other competitor, but it’s still obviously in extremely early stages and the information on it is lacking.

3. Farcaster To be brutally honest, I hate the design of the project. The founder talks about onboarding the a billion people to social media by minting profiles on L1. On a good day now that’s probably around 15 billion dollars on gas alone. Not to mention transactions and the lack luster amount of storage of profile data. Each profile is only allowed to have 10k saved posts on chain with the old ones being phased out. Even worse in my opinion this data is proposed to only be stored by 100 nodes. The project runs great on test net, but that’s practically free block space.

Overall, I think each protocol is trying to work around Lens’ model rather than compete head to head. Just because Lens isn’t omnichain now doesn’t mean it can’t be with an ONFT standard wrapped for the profile, integrated on Holograph and deployed on other EVMs and VMs, but considering the likely hood that all the technicals are abstracted away and the gasless experience is driven by revenue from users is high and the goal. It seems unnecessary especially because it decreases security and interoperability for the user.
