Nostr Web Client

What is the actual downsides to the fediverse? If anyone has resources for learning about it, I'm digging in this week because I've generally always avoided it.

If Lemmy had zaps, and by extension other federated social medias, would it not enable them with the same financial incentivizes we see on Nostr?

Nostr feels like it's caving under its own shortcomings, but us who use it regularly aren't going to just "give up" zaps.

We can't expect twitter or large platforms to integrate zaps, but why is the fediverse seemingly barren of them as well?

From what I gather, federations may have moderation policies that users disagree with.. but that leaves the door open for competitors, right? And I assume any instance can opt out of federating? Are there like different federations within the same ecosystem?

"the wise man tells you where you have fallen

and where you yet may fall.

invaluable secrets.

follow him, follow the way.

let him chasten and teach you

and keep you from mischief.

the world may hate him

but good men love him.

do not look for bad company

or live with men who do not care.

find friends who love the truth.

drink deeply. live in serenity and joy.

the wise man delights in the truth

and follows the law of the awakened.

the farmer channels water to his land.

the fletcher whittles his arrows.

and the carpenter turns his wood.

so the wise man directs his mind.

the wind cannot shake a mountain.

neither praise nor blame moves the wise man.

he is clarity.

hearing the truth, he is like a lake,

pure and tranquil and deep."
