Actually good content is "something", right?
You are paying, if you want, what you want, a product that someone had made in advance without asking for anything.
Isn't it cool? :)
It's called "value for value" (V4V)

Valid point. I think I have the wallet set up correctly now?
It seems so.
Awesome! 🔥🔥🔥
Yes, working. And btw you can use that money immediately to buy stuff. For example now I'm going to a farmers market where everyone accepts bitcoin on lightning, so I'm going to buy some veggies for the zaps I received.
For what it's worth I'm getting a bit more sats on Stacker News (that's also connected to nostr), but nostr profile is getting close recently.
I think one problem we have today is "lack of transparency" around how content creators are paid... Considering platforms are their boss, not users.
With nostr, we are the boss. But the thing is that we are so used to "free" content with ads (or ad blockers) that we have no idea what content is actually worth.
I think zaps and contributions should be more formalised, but in an open and voluntary way to be clear. Content creators can suggest a value, viewers can zap what they like, and together we all recreate a fair market.
I'm thinking more about video content providers and not memers, but why should any feature be limited to any category of a person?
