If I remember correctly, he had bots that would zap. And he would make people trend arbitrarily. Some were temporarily banned from trending. It caused a lot of drama at the time. But he proved his point: that zaps alone aren’t a good measure of trending

Good point again. I didn't say it would be a walk in the park, but I see no alternative at the moment for breaking through the noise.
I also prefer comments and quotes because I'm interested in improving my reasoning more than my stack size. For posterity tho, zaps will highlight stuff better even if nostr collapses. People receiving the sats will have the capital to push this forward. Or they'll spend it on hookers and coke. Everybody got to eat, innit? 😅
