Make zaps the standard.

No likes, only zaps.

If you like something, it gave you value.

The more value, the bigger the zap.

Simple.

I kinda disagree on that. A "like" can be a nod, or a thumbs up, or a "I've read this / seen this", etc.

There's a reason why Slack and GitHub comments have emoji reactions, and it's not to feed the algo (they don't have an algo).

Views / Likes / Zaps are distinct and different, and for good reason. I have more to say about this soon, but I'll have to leave it at that for now.

That said, I'm not against #onlyZaps and I think zapping should be the default. But there's room for emoji reactions. "You wouldn't zap a car crash" and all that.

Fair enough

Nah. Zaps Only isn’t a good idea.

You need some signal other than just zaps. IMO.

Likes are a shitcoin. They can be printed out of thin air. Only zaps have value ;)
