Do you know the origins of this image ? This is the infamous "Panopticon".
Yes lol
Oh yeah , I forgot people know things on Nostr, dur.
Ha no no, it's fine. It was just in relation to some discussion and comments earlier re: BlueSky and The Vibecheck. Was just saying nostr has its own vibecheck mechanisms (although I think it's fair to say, as Will did, not at protocol level). Although, I would still say it exists at community level. It's just some pondering lol

Not that long, maybe a week? Probably not long enough to make any conclusion or notice any difference. There's a few zapless people out here. I've seen some people mention zaps are ruining nostr, which is a curious point. There might be a case for that, not sure. There is definitely a case for saying that zaps really aren't different to likes, and nostr doesn't operate outside of social media dynamics/phenomena because of zap. I feel quite sceptical about zaps being any kind of 'signal'. I've really not reached a conclusion tho, this are suspicions is all ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

😂😅🥲😒
I' ve seen a contaiment building first. #nuclear bias. ☢️
The modern day version Jeremy Bentham's design is almost complete. FISA 702 was a big brick.
Zaps as a mechanism is potentially worse than Likes. You could argue in such an early stage of a social media it might cause topic/tone stagnation reinforcing bitcointwitterisms and further alienating anyone outside of that culture joining and staying, forced 'positivity', zapfarming etc etc.
It's also not impossible to imagine say someone or an organisation with enough funding and incentive to steer/nudge and monetarily incentize certain kinds of posts by zapping. Not saying this is the case ATM, cos nostr doesn't really have enough of a userbase maybe to do that.
(But as I've often said I think we are the guineapigs, the beta testers of this whole project lol. We're sort of yet to see a proper v4v social media scenario here.)
