We're actually behind. See third party advertising comes here because hey they got money to spend on spam bots. Have you noticed all the news links & npubs with yellow checks next to their names? All spam bots provided to you by the one & only third party. We just gave them a bigger territory & an excuse to raise their prices.
ThirdParty:Now we reach more people then ever thanks nostr!
Fair point. However, using #nostr as just another avenue for untargeted spamming is, again, proof that they don't really understand the possibility and opportunities that nostr provides in actually paying your prospective audience, P2P (or B2P), to hear your message, about your product, to engage with your brand in one way or another, etc.
Yeah it's cool people can pay people individually if they like what they read. It's like tipping that musician who plays at your local ferry terminal as you wait for the next boat to come in. If you like his songs you tip him.
It seems like not much at first depending on how many relays you add to your profile. Lets say you wana reach out to as many as possible some relays are just total spam relays ehehum mostr.pub it becomes harder to control your feed because it refreshes every second because we don't have refresh control. What ends up happening is your global feed you just see another spam bot inbetween every post. I've probably blocked 10k bots already.
But you can't stop an algorithim from creating npubs every second to spam the same post. The filter spam checks work only a little bit in filtering them out. It's almost like a cat & mouse game only its add relays make a post reach more people & see more bots. Sure your post gets seen but did it get drowned in everyone elses feed by the spam bots?
Ultimately it is cool to tip for something you like just you have to provide incentive for it to be seen more. For example awhile back there was a big ad going around willing to pay every booster 10k zaps per repost. Lets just say 3 days straight you saw nothing but that ad everyone & their grandma was doing it. I made 150k in zaps reposting that over & over.
Name and shame the Third Party.

#Nostr is so revolutionary that it extinguished the middle man. Why pay for facebook ads for people to follow you when you yourself can pay people to become your followers?
I agree with you and we're so ahead of so many others now.

My Lightning node receives ads embedded in 1 sat payments!
Amazing !
Companies maybe don't, but employees do!
A zap a day keeps fiat away.
interested in all things advertising worth a follow and repost.
Zap zap
One repost for you sir. ⚡
i agree with this and cant wait for more adoption...i had ads on my podcast and they are so obtrusive to the listener experience that i removed them all, transferred my pod over to a podcasting 2.0 host and am hoping for support direct from listeners instead of relying on a 3rd party. much better experience for everyone.
Zapping dude is a good dude
Bora fazer o system fiat chorar... Ele não notará agora, mas é só questão de tempo.
Vambooorraaaa...

Other sites can be accessed with ad blockers, because who wants ads forced on them. If everyone did that, the ad companies won't get paid. Here we don't have to deal with annoying ads and we can zap the posts that we like.
Need more #FreeJulianAssange ! Thanks Satoshee
THANKS FOR THE 🧡 EVERYONE
IF YOU COMPLETED ALL STEPS IN THE PAST 24H AND HAVE NOT BEEN ZAPPED MESSAGE ME
If you didn't complete all the steps but left a comment anyways, you will also still be zapped a small amount :)
FYI there's still the Satoshee Treasure Hunt going on + new stuff, including giveaways and contests coming soon so get involved & stay tuned 👀 https://satosh.ee/

PS. Tell your nocoiner / nonostr friends. This stuff ain't happening in fiatland, this is happening on #nostr
As nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m succinctly put it:
nostr:note1y0s6ky8tr7ldq79qa6kg92cz3hg5x5ctj9et26nx43juegkavyrqlz6d78
TODAY IS MY #NOSTR BIRTHDAY
And it is a fiery love! Since we have no algorithms doing a “year in review” or whatever, I’ll try to make one myself :)
I didn’t really use social media much at all until May 2022, when I started using Twitter and Instagram (mostly with the idea of promoting my music and photos, but I quickly also started posting stuff regarding my ideas surrounding Bitcoin, philosophy, nature, yoga, etc.
Since joining nostr in March 2023; my main takeaways regarding the UX for the time being are:
1. Almost no spam and no ads thus far, which is awesome
2. No “being at the mercy of the algorithms,” which is awesome (although Instagram’s algo tends to do a pretty good job at showing me stuff I’m actually interested in)
3. Much higher signal/noise ratio than any other platform
4. Much less inflammatory and clickbaity stuff than any other platform
5. The ability to move your whole network around from app to app is an absolute gamechanger
6. I have already been able to use my npub to participate in rap cyphers (#nostrcypher represent) via nostr:npub1stemstrls4f5plqeqkeq43gtjhtycuqd9w25v5r5z5ygaq2n2sjsd6mul5, to upload my music and podcast episodes via nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg, to listen to streams via zap.stream, to publish my articles via nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q, etc. It is inspiring (and dizzying) to see all the new ideas and implementations being thrown around and played with
7. Zaps are the new, improved version of likes
8. Interactions between users seem to be much more organic, fluid and dynamic
I’m including a screenshot with some rudimentary stats. I try not to be phased by my followers/likes/whatever count, because that is ultimately not the purpose of creation. However, the differences between nostr and legacy social media are huge. In my case, I have been getting 14 new followers per month on Instagram, 34 on X and 54 (nearly 55) on nostr!
What makes this even more amazing is the fact that:
1. Both IG and X have a much larger user base
2.1. I follow a whole lot more accounts on X
2.2. And on IG a large % of my followers are my meatspace acquaintances, friends and relatives
3. Presumably on both IG and X I have many more bot followers than on nostr (I’m not entirely sure if bot followers are even a thing yet on nostr?)
Funnily enough, on YouTube, Spotify and Soundcloud I have less than 200 followers on each, even though Kontext as the pseudonym was created and existed, for the first 7 years (2015 to 2022), exclusively as the anonymous rapper moniker of mine (hence MC Kontext).
I have stated that I am a zap maximalist and a like minimalist, and as such I’m proud to say that for each like, I have sent out almost 6 zaps. The data below is from nostr.band and is different from other sources (e.g. nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg- also happy birthday to them - my current favorite desktop app) says I have received 190 zaps for a total of 25.1k sats and a max zap of 2100 sats from )
Some of the most legendary people who I have received zaps from include nostr:npub1s05p3ha7en49dv8429tkk07nnfa9pcwczkf5x5qrdraqshxdje9sq6eyhe, nostr:npub1dergggklka99wwrs92yz8wdjs952h2ux2ha2ed598ngwu9w7a6fsh9xzpc, nostr:npub1h8nk2346qezka5cpm8jjh3yl5j88pf4ly2ptu7s6uu55wcfqy0wq36rpev, nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft, nostr:npub1saxmd5km0vusxhl84tqeaqaysftezh3h6ne22h95efntutth42yqlju5fv, nostr:npub1qny3tkh0acurzla8x3zy4nhrjz5zd8l9sy9jys09umwng00manysew95gx (but no nostr:npub1guh5grefa7vkay4ps6udxg8lrqxg2kgr3qh9n4gduxut64nfxq0q9y6hjy). A total of 152 accounts have zapped me according to nostr.band. In return, I have zapped a total of 256 accounts (if anybody knows another good nostr+zaps stats site for all-time stats and aggregates, please refer it to me).
Now, obviously, I have managed to “make a loss” by using #nostr - I have zapped away 24k sats more than I have received! However, I regret no sats zapped as they all have been for a good reason, #value4value is real and I believe and live by it. Also, perhaps the fact that I have been rather generous with the zapping has helped my nostr account grow at almost twice the pace of my X account and 4 times the pace of my IG account?
Speaking of growing and zapping, I have also started experimenting with the ideas of #zapvertising and throwing different contests and games on nostr via my business account nostr:npub1p6y243ek340jtqjr0qnqg2elkw3x5yn08kzhvxxxkejj486mlg9qtnwx3t.
I will post a larger, more comprehensive post and stats about that whole venture at some point, but on a very rudimentary look, so far, we have spent approx 450k sats on 276 followers + approx 11 (or 4%) of them also converted into email list subscribers. Which comes down to approx 1.6k sats / follower or 41k sats per email. Now keep in mind - all that is just by posting zapvertising + a couple of memes, we have not published any other information about the enterprise. That being said, I do believe we have gotten some lovely exposure through these efforts (one of Satoshee posts was #3 on Primal 24h Trending at one point):
nostr:note1n49nkjst0apjqdfy4l86269n0srlqynj47mdee9cu7pcfahtz0qs3zmm0c
Hopefully once we fully launch the website and products, our gang of #nostriches will be there to test drive the site + become the first customers and/or recommend it to their friends. My thesis is that if we start off by literally paying our prospective customers, then they are more likely to trust and engage with our products as soon as we come to the market. All that will be either proven or disproven by time, of course.
Anyways (I never intended to go for so long and it’s almost 6AM here in New South Wales, #Australia right now) to wrap it all up: super excited to see freedom tech (both #Bitcoin and #nostr) just being so unbelievably more effective and inspiring than the old fiat systems and I can only imagine how much abundance and prosperity on all levels of the human experience; physical, intellectual and spiritual can and will be built upon all this.
Onward.
