I generally agree with this. I’m never going to zap everything I see so not having reactions just leads to less engagement. I see likes as a simple acknowledgement that people see your notes and emoji reactions can convey a whole range of emotions that zaps don’t. I personally think that a thoughtful comment is often the best form of engagement.

Everyone uses Nostr in different ways though. I’m not here to become a content creator or influencer so for me an occasional zap is nice but I’m not trying to get zaps to earn a living.
