I agree with this to a degree. But I'm thinking of nostr:npub12rzunrxvx89f78h4df284lzvkjqetljkq0200p62ygwmjevx0j8qhehrv9 #inkbkotArt as an example and I actually personally think that's a constructive use of a similar tactic. It makes me try and think of what I'm seeing. I'd even boost that one without the zap incentive.
The ones that straight lead me on a hunt of follow farming, like and subscribe stuff, just boost this is less appealing to me. Especially if it's Mainly the ONLY content day after day they put out.
I'd rather just throw my shitposts and notes at the fan and on someone likes it, bully for me.
But I agree mostly with your way of putting it.
