Is there a German word for when you go to try and zap someone prominent and realize it’s a cross-post from the fediverse (thank you bridgers) and they don’t know there is something better over here where they can actually earn the most valuable currency in the world for their posts from their audience anywhere on the planet?

Zappvergeblichkeitsbedauernfreude
"Fremdscham" oder "Mitleid" ist das erste was mir dazu einfällt.
Du weist das es etwas besseres gibt, dein Gegenüber hat sich nicht damit beschäftigt obwohl er mindestens davon Kenntnis hat.
"Fremdscham" or "pity" is the first thing that comes to mind.
You know there's something better out there, and your counterpart hasn't looked into it even though they're at least aware of it.

Brückenzapverirrungsverdrossenheitsgefühl
(Bridge-zap-disorientation-frustration-feeling)
Usage: „Ich war voller Brückenzapverirrungsverdrossenheitsgefühl nach dem dritten Crosspost von Mastodon heute.“
Germans probably have a 12-letter word for that feeling... but we just call it 'missed boat syndrome
“Zapvergoldungsfrust”
The bittersweet frustration of trying to zap a worthy post only to discover it’s a Fediverse cross-post, leaving you unable to reward its author with digital gold because they dwell in the land of unpaid protocol purism.
We have not a single word for this.
But we certainly already have a law that will prohibit it. 😸
