Nostr Web Client

So I tested the twitter revenue thing, boy that's gonna help them.

Doesn't mater how we feel about it, they are building the sticky incentives.

It actually pays relatively much more than I thought, for doing nothing you wouldn't already done. That's magic for ppl.

Which brings me back to economically meaning zaps. Zapping a beer counts, zapping sub dust limit won't attract the normies.

The competition and the normies are not morally aligned with us. Ppl are busy living their lives.

Elon is buying out influencers, via rewarding them through a black box.

He can basically push or mute whatever exposure he likes through this program, just by paying thoughts leaders more, or less.

As you mentioned, it’s like magic, and whether we like it or not, it’s not something we can compete against on nostr.

We’re not going to outbid the Fiat Rankings Leader for exposure just yet, especially while there is still no clear path to fairly pay clients builders and relay operators.

I see nostr as a very long term solution (10+ years) to keep true free speech alive, short term think we should just focus on UX and education instead while nostr stays up as a life raft in case of global social media platform shutdown.

You are missing the point. We all know what, but it doesn't mater. Ppl dont care. Having better incentives needs to win economically not morally.

You need both. They ban "nazis" on twitter (evrn if it would make them more money to have them) to win some warpped moral battle.

We must win morally AND economically

That’s actually my point. Try however hard you can, you won’t beat a dude whom raised $42B in a couple of months on sheer economic power.

So we better find other ways to compete against him.
