When I zap anonymously, I picture someone giggling on the other side of the world. Magic.

Why not Private zap? I thought about going full anon, but then I considered if the other person would want to know who is appreciating them. Occasionally anon is good, unless it’s creepy in any way. There are so many psychological and cultural implications to the whole zapping, that it is hard to make any conclusions yet! My 31 sats worth of opinion! 🐶🐾🫡🫂
My opinion on zaps is constantly evolving and changing too 😁. 99% of my zaps are public and I rarely, if ever, use private. I think private will be good for when individuals are exchanging digital services and would like to keep their “contract” private. I’m not quite sure why I don’t use it?
We live in a world where surprises are few and far between. As humans we always have to know the reasons “why”. Anonymous zaps are just a way for me to remind people that they are awesome and that life can still surprise them. It’s like finding something you didn’t even know you were looking for. It just adds a little something more, maybe a little mystery and intrigue. It also erases any expectations of something in return, and it’s truly a gift to someone else. Of course, it’s not all altruistic because I still get a good feeling from it.
A teacher I work with has “kindness fairies” who sneak into her classroom and leave messages to their classmates. You should see the kids faces light up. Maybe, I think I’m doing the same thing? Who knows? I’m sure my opinion will change again tomorrow 😁🫂💜
Good point! I am using Private as default and so far it worked well for me. I may change that in the future, but who knows! 🐶🐾🫂🤷♂️
I got ghost zapped today and i was just looking at it like now what do i say thanks in a post or respect the anonimity lol
Its a dopamine hit
usually : 10 seconds of awe of what humans have been able to do followed by 20 seconds of giggling about how much cooler the coming future is going to be for all
