I hope someday reposts and zaps completely replace the need for “likes”/🤙🏼.

Reposts and zaps are true value exchange…and have a real cost: your reputation or money.

Likes are superficial and exist only to inform an algorithm.

Relevance algorithms have their place, but they are best informed by a truly costly action.

My first thoughts about stuff like this is often to wonder about people (like myself) who have limited means. But, yes, anyone can afford 1 sat!

I think jack is on to something that i think about a lot too. Reposts & zaps would definitely increase signal & reduce noise. Sincerity & thoughtfulness seem like a lost art, and reposting & zapping would help folks think more about what they are paying attention to.
