nostr:npub1y8yk2myx0l46ccq34eanww8eyp57xar4nqg3gexptxcjzm30e9ssl9pw77 had an idea for paid follow button (subscription?)

What are your thoughts on that?

I like the idea but only if it doesn’t paywall anything - more of a paid “supporter”

Maybe that unlocks some feature and ties into supporting the client somehow? 🤔

Curious to explore this further!

I could just use a different client to follow you??

Of course. That wouldn’t be the point. It’s more of a “I find this person valuable and their contributions, and this is my way of supporting them beyond typical zaps”

I know that alone is not very convincing though I suspect some would use it (I would), so im eager to see how we can align incentives somehow without making that relationship feel transactional (I pay you so you feel obligated to share something valuable)

“shoutout to my paid subscribers, here is a stream link to my show this weekend”

could be used for perks or something

Paid subs get exclusive badges? 😆😅

More of a “Become a patron” or “Support” button

What would be the difference between just a follow and a paid follow?

Not sure yet. That’s why I’m asking.

Maybe subscribing enables notifications from that user's posts? Personally, I want this feature to be free. But just an idea

Now that I'm thinking of it.....paying for someone's notifications is kind of like paying for a subscription to their newsletter. Especially since there is no algorithm on nostr, this feature as a paid feature kind of makes sense

Yeah not sure. Need collective brainstorming here

Ima shrimpy fry, so I'd say no cuz I like hv the smallest stack in the world and would hate to miss out on any good things said/shared, but then...

🤔

Unlocking features sounds great but how would that work when subscribing to multiple accts?

My second thought is could scheduled posting be leveraged to add value in some way?

That would be cool for businesses especially 🙌

Yoy got my brain going. I may come back to this later on😅

Unlock mentions after user set minimum total is met?

Things I have on my list for subscriptions/supporters:

1. No Paywalls, indeed

2. Display the supporters (if they agreed), next to the "Support" button ideally

3. Benefit for supporters:

- gain attention from the npub you support (priority in DM's, priority where you are displayed in the UI, ...)

- early access to content

- maybe even an investor type scenario, where they get a zap payback in some way at some point

#subscriptions #subscription #support #patron

This last point might create some crazy Pyramid Schemes on nostr though, now that I think about more 😉

yes so my main idea was having a patreon/ substack „Thing“ where you basically pay to see content.

And how I imagen this would be some clients offer to become this Typ of creator where you have all your settings etc … And to store the paid content in events with a different Id/kind

so when someone pays the money fee he gets a key (maybe relationship)

to his account where he could see on all clients who support this paid Kind

To see the content.

basically having as a creator two feeds

Notes from yesterday: Options for the content creator:?

- how much and how often is membership paid?

- No censorship? No relaying on add or sponsorship all that Kak

- For developers it could be. Having opinions about what they or how they create; what features come to clients or not?

- All the nostr benefits + real money
