My conclusion in the #OnlyZaps experiment is that it should be an app's choice and not a user's choice.

Apps can optimize for offering reactions [x]OR or not offering reactions. Doing both well at the same time (giving the user a choice to enable or not) is a herculean (UX) effort for the small teams we have today.

Don't like the choice your client has made? Find and fund another client that aligns with your choice. I can guarantee you will be better served.

I'm all for onlyzaps , but if we want this protocol to be successful and grow we need that too. We need this to be friendly and welcoming not to be like some billionaires boys club. All respect for what you do for the amethyst app 🫡

I am only just having a look at all of this, and the learning curve, even for someone familiar with the concepts, is a lot. It has still taken me a whole day to figure out wth is going on and probably have 10 IDs now lol... still don't know what a Zap is. heh. Anyway, there is always that tension between normie uptake and viability and I hope various projects can help with that onboarding gap to what is a great product.

Personally, I am just excited to see people working so hard and agree that optics is paramount. Anyway, I hope to persevere and help where I can (hope you don't mind me jumping in and replying here to test/find people/get events etc working). I'm one of those 30-year Unicorn Design and people-people, not an engineer, but giving it a good shot. Onya, folks. You're all doing great.
