Fuck ‘likes’. I’m zap only now.

Am I doing this right?

This is a test post that includes image metadata (blurhash, dimensions, etc). Please ignore.

I've experienced weird things as well. Lol 😆 I boosted a note and it boosted as a comment on someone's note and the topics were totally unrelated.. really weird lmao

I don’t see why not

I agree with the hierarchy of interactions as presented, I think if ALL that nostr offered was that uncensorable hierarchy of *Zap, Repost, Comment, and Like* it would be a fantastic overall improvement: I'm excited to see what else evolves out of this framework.

The roots are thick and healthy and the foundation is solid and strong.

It's a delightfully robust skeleton on which to expand upon.

Isn't a like reaction effectively just a 0 sats zap?

Why fight over this? It's like someone setting a minimum amount for the ln address which you already can.

I especially like this bit:

“The goalposts of metrics are changing.

Vanity out. Value in.”

i was driving to this post by its first pic – i find the idea of “collecting” as a new trend in social networking (as well as curated lists, btw)

your post is mostly about other stuff, but you connect it with the pic by determining zaps as glorified bookmarks – is it really?

for me – it definitely could be, if clients showed the post you zapped in your feed and on your account page

GoodNight

Buonanotte … ✨

Au revoir

Yep

I think first we should pay people for their time and attention.

In order for people to be more comfortable with the idea of giving up hard earned sats for a meme they genuinely enjoyed or a well constructed post such as this one, people must see their own time and attention as valuable in order to probably value other peoples time and effort.

A simple example would be to allow advertisers to directly advertise to target users, but instead of paying the platform with users to show ads for them, the advertiser has control over who is shown their ads and the money they would normal pay to the platform is instead paid out to the target users via zaps.

Users who engage with ads would be more likely to receive future ads, and ads would be more targeted to things you’re actually interested in.

This could extend beyond normal advertising and be used by influencers or just normal people who want to boost a particular post.

I think a system like this, along with the ability to zap content you think is worthy makes for a space that would have less free-riders and encourage a circular economy where everyone’s time is valued accordingly.

Do any clients support pinning a post to your profile?
