Subnostr

I think this heavily undermines the concept that zaps are signal.

I’m not ok with viewing ads, paid or unpaid. I run my own relay, pay for several more, and donate to Damus development. The day I can’t easy mute ads is the day I go back to being without social media.

I suppose notification settings are going to need to be granular on zaps soon. Notify for zaps from: { followed, all, none }

Totally get where you (both) are coming from here

To me, this is another instance where nostr clients should offer the optionality and control over your own experience.

Any user is free to part with their own sats as desired. It should also be each user’s choice whether or not to know about it, or to read an attached zap note, etc.

My main point is that zapping one user to incentivize him to spam all of his followers, with no zap compensation or consent from those followers, is a different game, and it’s one that I’m uncomfortable participating in. Zap me to show me a note — okay, that’s my choice to accept — but pay me to spam my followers without their consent…. No thanks uncle

This seems the freedom respecting, reasonable middle-ground.

I feel sorry for client devs. These apps have to be 1000x more powerful and flexible than traditional social media apps.

They’re legends. The lot of them

I can 💯 stand next to you on that sentiment. If people want to do this, they can, but I absolutely should be able to filter it - and do so easily.

I’m sure controls will come out of it as things grow.

Exactly! What I’ve really liked about so many of these events and discussions is that each one seems to demonstrate the need for the user’s control over their own experience. And then the devs make it happen 💪
