I don't think it's the number one use case for the lightning network. But I agree with you on what you're saying a little bit. Lol.. I just disagree a little bit on the 1st part because the lightning network was here way before nostr and there's on the lightning network more than nostr.. And a majority of those people have no idea nostr exist but use the lightning network faithfully everyday.

I'd say that the use of lightning in V4V microtransactions is the number one onboarding ramp for nocoiners.
And with both Twitter and Meta charging for a tick, not only do we give those away, but you get paid and pay others for liking each other's content without any middleman taking a cut.

That is exactly how I explain it normie's just how you explained it because in the future. All content creators are gonna migrate on here for that reason.
Exactly. I see Elon promising to beat YouTube revenue sharing. Giving creators 60% I think it was. Wait until they see Nostr...
And because it's a flexible open protocol you can literally do whatever you want with it! Someone can integrate Nostr into PeerTube and Invidious. Someone can make a TikTok clone with zaps.
It's gonna change the creator economy and remove control from large corporations exactly how Bitcoin intended.
