Bulk auto zaps are a terrible idea. Encourages spam, removes the incentive to actually put energy toward a note. Perfect for spammers.

Agreed. Zaps should be a personalized experience imo.
I agree.
Tried it once, only good to zap some hashtags during zapathon. 🐶🐾🫡
What’s the point of zapathons?
To stress test LN and relays, mainly. I don’t think anyone getting reach of off those! 🐶🐾🫡
I don't think it stress tests LN at all since most addresses here are on WoS. They don't even have to make a LN transaction, just change 2 values in their db.
Not all, and it changes rapidly. I am hosting my own, and many more plebs do that too. Plus, we also stress test WoS infra, which is good, since it’s a wallet of choice for new comers. 🐶🐾🫡

At least Damus let’s you disable notifications dots for everything individually. Gonna try only leaving the comment dots on!
Spammers don't like to pay though
Actually they do if it’s meaningless amounts - gives them the appearance of being legit
If the zaps amounts are meaningless what's the point of them?? The whole idea behind it is true appreciation of content. Value4value. If the zaps are meaningless that means they don't have value. I
I think in bitcoin there's no meaningless amounts. Every sat counts. I also think the spammers might still use micro zapping, because they they don't understand the true value of bitcoin. 1 sat today is $0.00029 in a year it might be $0.0029 and in ten years $0.29. It's going up forever Laura.
Agreed, we already have some spam bots commenting shady things…
