Yeah, I meant, that it's money that we essentially worked for and they owe to us, but pocket themselves.
As if we were serfs.
On Nostr, if you work, you get paid directly and often immediately. Or not at all. There is no murky confusion and you can decide if that work is worth your time and energy.
Well I guess they pay you by letting you use their service. Is it a fair deal? Probably not because why else would they keep you in the dark about it.
Yup. Exactly. There's no fiat middle men. The only cut taken is if you're using a client that gathers a share of what you're being zapped, and you usually have some control over that, too. That's much more preferable than never being paid for you time, attention, and effort.
