I've been here for months, never get replies. Don't know why. I follow a bunch of people and subjects, I put # on most of my comments and nothing. No interaction. I do appreciate the information tho. and us old folks need a step by step instruction on how to create zaps. Haven't the foggiest how to even start the process. I left Gab a few months a go and most times Nostr doesn't cut the amount of info I was getting on Gab...but now gab is full of folks from X who are such pro-Trumper normies I would never go back (much less what I found out about Torba) but here, it seems a better way, on ramp to more news and global comments would be nice.
Discussion
People who have been around tend not to discover new people unless they are interacting with them. I’d focus more on replies.
Upload a pfp and change your name.
That will help.
Most people just aren't going to follow someone named npub___ or someone without a picture.
To receive zaps just link a lightning wallet to your account.
