I like that Olas is taking off, but I'd rather not see people just recreating fiat platforms but now with zaps. The architecture of those platforms and the assumptions that go into the design are centered around maximizing engagement to drive advertisements, surveillance, and centralization, not social connection and local communities.
I think the Nostr apps that will survive won't look like the fiat tech that preceded it.
How do you use nostr in a way that supports social connection and local communities?

Really outta make a word doc with the raw npubs for myself to reference.
Maybe a listr.lol list 🤔
TIL about listr.lol
I haven't used it in a hot minute, but it looks like it's developed a lot since then.
Big question is does it integrate with clients John uses
No client has a button that just says: tag everyone in this list. Because everyone's afraid of hellthreads.
Or a note on his phone.
….or an Obsidian note 🔥
My Softwar subscribers list is literally just a text file with npubs. When people zap the release I manually copy their npub over. It's very high tech 😂
If it works it works 😂
Can't believe I forgot anonymous. I just can't remember a name that's not a name.
And nic is impossible to tag for some reason, I had to save a bookmark to his npub so I could go grab him
Nostr discoverability is lacking. Dead platform.
Shortcoming of Primal it seems.
Super weird... Maybe my npub is ultra retarded 🤔 ⭕
When I do @ nic you almost never show up.

Who knows, nostr is weird
What client are you using?
Mostly primal, damus on my phone sometimes
Primal on desktop?

THIS
If you head over to the business idea section of this pod when they touch on dating apps, it's sad to hear what the incentives and outcomes are for those running engagement-data-driven businesses:
And while I tend to agree with your sentiment, I do think zaps are a fundamental shift in monetization possibilities as they allow for another form of profit-making thay doesn't have to rely on data harvesting, clicks, and ads. Existing fiat platforms have predatory design patterns, yes, but they can be made drastically better with zaps.
Instagram didn't always look like instagram.
