The other perspective on zapvertising.

Thank you Karnage 😁.

Can't really enforce how clients present data. If you don't want people to see your zaps don't send zap recipients

The client can’t make it optional? I’d gladly pay to have the choice.

Sure, you can turn it off, but you can't stop other people, which is what the post is asking for.

This is šŸ’Æ correct. The zap event can be displayed by any client, there are a few on the web (and plebstr) where you can tap to view who they were and how much, etc.

It would affect your feed only.

For Damus, thegreatest zap is now displayed at the top of threads. My question was, could Damus make this optional so that other clients don’t see this event displayed at the top of a thread.

Turning off zap comments, so that companies and politicians can’t post links in zap comments would be nice too.

AFAIK they shouldn’t appear in other clients. Are they?

Oh, I assumed they were. Idk.

The events have always been there. Damus is just rendering them.

They don’t appear in plebstr.

Tbf this needs a toggle. I’m not going to use a client where there’s dozens of ads attached to high profile posts. But, that’s why they call it test flight.

Okay! Got it and agree. Ty Samecat.

No damus can't, it'd have to be able to censor nostr.

Huh? But it’s a new feature and didn’t exist until today?

It's just displaying/sorting events differently. You can't stop people from displaying data on nostr however they like.

Oh, Okay. I’m asking for optional sorting of the data, so that I can sort it the way I want, not to stop someone from sending it.

Yes, damus could make it so you don't see zapvertisements, but it can't stop others from seeing it unless they opt out themselves too.

Thanks for the clarification šŸ˜€šŸ¤™

Makes sense for it to be an option: "sell out my comment section" 🤪

Imagine irrelevent content zapped to the first couple comments and all your friends having to scroll through that unwillingly. This will hurt engagement. Needs to be an option. Or a slider e.g. show comment op top when zap>1000 sats. šŸ¤” What do you think?
