Majority of nostr doesn’t have a lightning wallet. If we disable likes people will just think this is a broken social network.
Besides, likes are used as acknowledgment often.

makes sense. I think we should try to be less like the old, and embrace the new more boldly then.
That'd be nice, but then this will become a purely bitcoiner niche social network and everyone else will ignore it. Bitcoin doesn't have a great brand as it is due to all the shitcoinery constantly latching onto it.
Im not convinced thats true. How could we be certain of that?
The reality is that trying to appease certain categories of people rn is not working anyway and nostr is naturally skewed towards certain kinds of users.
So while this is the case why not explore and try things full power. The way i see it, there is nothing to lose and everything to gain.
