And then throwing it on red at the craps table.

Following the rektbot will give you a different perspective on humanity.

A quote that rings truer with each passing day.

I honestly don't know what to say. The normies won't get it until an authoritative voice.....authoritates. Here's 10 satoshi's.

With SN you can login with nostr and cross post to nostr. I use it as a daily driver next to primal and amethyst. They have daily rewards, for good posts and a solid community.

They have user funded territories with games and competitions. I post in music pretty frequently and have one of my tapes pinned at the top.

When I post long form notes, I do it through SN to take advantage of both audiences and incentive structures.

It's pretty wild. They focused on the shopstr integration. https://thewildhustle.cypher.space/

You can upload products to the blog and they'll show up in the marketplace on amethyst.

I was working on updating the shop with posters, vinyl and graphic T's

Ooh,

I can browse shopstr on amethyst through the lists I copied from listr. Can shop using around me/artists/musicians/companies/farmers/journalist/followers etc.

And some of the deals are super cheap (I'm assuming because the freaks want to build selling reputation)

Looks like the shopstr marketplace is picking up. I'm now seeing a bunch of products ranging from Bitaxes to a variety of clothing to coffee and coding lessons.

Cypher.space is a cool nostr blogging platform that includes a shop. Might need a dedicated website for freaks to strictly browse an npubs product offerings.

Like, who are these people?

These people who bet a million dollars on bitcoins daily price action and end up as a nostr note from the rekt bot. Or the folk that get furious when they find out Hawk Tuah was a bad "investment".

I was at a family get together and my brother in law said "Hey your bit stuff is doing well huh?" My aunt said "what's that? Crypto-coin?"

Am I just in a sturdy, well built echo chamber, or should everyone know better by now?

I'm on android. Need Damus purple to try the alpha?

Should I stream songs from youtube music on zap.stream

Would that be considered unethical if I receive zaps for other peoples songs?

I guess I could do the same with songs on Wavlake and it would be ok as long as I give the artist a shoutout?

The introduction of badges changed Reddit for me. The psychological need to continue using Reddit to continue my daily streak is strong.

I noticed this after the first few badges. 5 days 10, 20, 30, etc. I wanted to keep going because I was getting notifications that I was completing something special.

After earning a couple badges, I found myself forcing myself to use Reddit every day just to keep my streak alive. Then, badges started to become more rare in quality as the streak day count increased. I wanted to collect them all! I wanted to see if I could earn the legendary ones. 365 days? 500 days? Hell yeah!

I don't particularly care about Reddit all that much. Most days I'd be fine just reading. I don't need to upvote or downvote. Or at least I thought I didn't? Badges changed that for me.

I see this with my children, especially my daughter. Her and her friends all use Snapchat to communicate. She cares about keeping her streaks alive with friends. It's a silly little indicator in Snapchat, just like Reddit, that keeps pulling people back in.

I know that we all recognize the issues with legacy social media. I know these tactics are meant to keep bringing us back, so that the algorithms can keep us enraged and engaged, to steal our attention. We can do better!

It's no secret that user retention is horrible across the Nostr ecosystem. Could a Nostr client implement something similar to these streak badges without the negative aspects to keep people coming back? Definitely.

Nostr doesn't have evil algorithms. (Someone could build one though. It's an open protocol!) I believe a developer could implement a similar feature to draw people back into their application. We have a badges spec. The badge could be automatically assigned and displayed on the user profile as their engagement increases.

I guess technically this doesn't even need to be implemented by a specific client. Someone could essentially write a DVM for this, right? This would be a large task though. The DVM could use the nostr.band API or search.nostr.wine API or something similar to do this and assign these streak badges automatically across "all of Nostr" or even just a specific set of relays. Relay operators could implement something such as this too. It's all possible.

Thoughts?

Seems like it would fit Yakihonne's style, and it reminds me of the Stacker News cowboy streak. Probably best left to individual clients instead of it being a nostr wide thing.
