Could apps give an option to display zaps as progress bars with a target for that note that could be set by the creator while posting? Default to just a normal count display?
I know nothing & that sounds complicated but feasible in my head 😅

I like this progress bar idea.
I suppose there could be zap goals for notes and/or zap goals for profiles. A progress bar would probably be easier to display on a profile page, but maybe there can be a special fundraiser kind of post that shows a zap progress bar like how the poll posts have their own format.
Or maybe if the user sets up a zap goals on a post the zap counter could show "21k / nk sats"
I was thinking by note because some things are just a lot more work than others & people would be able to express their perceived value for that particular work.
Maybe it could somehow be displayed when a note is opened? If someone is just scrolling by, they probably don't find much value in the content, but if they click it (to reply, watch full size video, etc) they probably do.
