Ever since I started working on the problem of alternative/decentralized social media I've said that "it's a 10 year project with a 0% chance of success". I'm stunned with how well nostr has gone over the last 3 years, and I think we have already achieved some measure of success (though global adoption still remains pretty unlikely in my book).

If you're feeling discouraged with engagement on nostr, user growth, client UX, business model profitability, developer funding models, or protocol stability, just remember how early we are. Very few new businesses reach profitability; protocols are even less likely than that to reach widespread adoption. Nostr's success is far from certain but it's worth investing in anyway. It's an incredibly ambitious project, and requires that we lower our time preference.

I appreciate you brother. As soon as I figure out how to get these zaps working again, I'll hit you up. I can receive but can't zap. Lnurl says outdated. Even when empty. Could this be why?

I'm not sure what you mean by "lnurl says outdated". Sending zaps doesn't have anything to do with the lnurl attached to your profile, but rather with your sending wallet.

I put the wallet info in these fields and it will receive but won't send. Thought it might have to do with the outdated message

Maybe send a screenshot of what you see when you send?

Just spinning wheel where zap icon is

Ah, ok, this has always been difficult. Your payments are likely going through (are they, if you check your wallet?), but the zap isn't showing up where coracle is looking for it. What wallet are you using to zap?

Sorry if I mislead. using amethyst. And wos

I frequently run into the same issue on Coracle/Alby. I don't think it's my implementation (any more), I can only guess that the zapper isn't delivering the zap receipt to the proper relays on time

Yeah, the zapper didn't send the confirmation.

I wonder if nostr:nprofile1qqsqgwramccp6nsqmhkcx29akyzrhjjaj7x65lq35r7zvlj0flk8vpgpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uq32amnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwv3sk6atn9e5k7tcpz4mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wchskzasgg has too many inbox relays that the zapper from Alby doesn't know what to do... Amethyst does create the zap request with ALL of them, for all involved parties in the zap, so the list can be massive and may even hit the maximum json size limit in some relays (given that the zap request goes inside the zap event).
