Yea I noticed this too.
Hopefully as more people come to Nostr those artists will find some genuine fans that enjoy their art and not just the one time zap from purple pillers trying to make them feel welcome
Yea we’re eager to welcome people, which is good. But it also creates false expectations. “Wow my posts are going to do great here and make money.” And then 🦗🦗🦗 😂
Maybe extend the welcoming for a few days, follow those artists and share a few of their notes.
There's no algorithms to do it for them, this protocol is people powered.
I like that about nostr.
I love that about nostr. The best thing new artists here can do for themselves is to be active on other people’s posts/threads. Most people won’t see the content they’re posting at first (because nobody follows them) but MANY people will see their replies, and that will lead some to check out their profile, when will get eyes on their content and may even result in shares/reposts and zaps. It takes time, and most people I’ve seen just want to post their song/video/art/article and then never engage back with people. That doesn’t work here.
😂
Did you ever ask yourself why is that? 🤨
Me after my first contribution 
First zap is fiat, and then when they get a lightning wallet set up the rest is bitcoin so it's non physical and can be stored inside their head?
