My best guess is through arcade nostr after hearing it on #[3] podcast.

Until Jack* 🤙
I wish I could remember. Somehow found Damus like 5 months ago and then didn’t come back until announced his donation
Me too! I don’t even remember how I found it, but Brian does a great job.
Musk is turning into a total clown show. Easy to see why quality of the bird app continues to suffer.
Oh it’s still very much alive. It was on test net for a while and is now on mainnet. The sub has turned into a spammy, brigading hellhole because moon issuance is tied to subreddit karma. And yes lots of questionable stuff with distribution to mods.
Just kidding. The actual beauty of zaps is that it’s built on bitcoin and can’t be algorithmically manipulated like the garbage Reddit tokens (see Reddit Moons). Social with actual value is here.

You mean any at all? For the wallet providers that are working you have to click on the note to get the count to show up. Works on Will’s posts and some other users. LightningTipBot implementation appears to be working on other clients, just missing on Damus
I believe @calle is aware and investigating as we speak
I should clarify… I can see zaps on posts from #[2] . I can’t see any on posts coming from LightningTipBot - at least not on these posts from Calle that are supposedly showing up outside of Damus
# ⚡️ Nostr zaps - a guide 💜
Time to get you zappin' with LightningTipBot (https://ln.tips). This is my personal setup. There are other ways and services to do this. Do you own research. This is just a suggestion.
## 1) Set up LightningTipBot wallet
- Click here: https://LN.tips 👈
- You're done.
## 2) Sending zaps
Let's start with sending. You don't need much. Any Lightning wallet will do. I will describe how to use LightningTipBot to zap with.
### Sending zaps in the browser
- Get the Alby brower extension at https://getalby.com/
- Go to LightningTipBot and enter "/link"
- Copy the details and go to Alby and add a new "LNDHUB" wallet
- Enter your details
- Your LightningTipBot wallet can now be controlled from your browser
- Click on the ⚡️ zap icon for example in iris.to and you'll be able to send zaps.
### Sending zaps on mobile
- You can also "/link" your wallet to BlueWallet
- Get BlueWallet from the App store
- Import a new Lightning wallet
- Enter your credentials from LightningTipBot
- You can now control your LightningTipBot wallet from Bluewallet
- Click the ⚡️ zap icon for example in Amethyst or Damus and open BlueWallet.
- Pay and zap on
## 3) Receiving zaps
You can receive zaps with pretty much any Lightning address provider. There are many options. See: https://lightningaddress.com/
However, if you want the zaps to appear under your posts in Damus or Snort.social, you'll have a few less options (still). Here is how to do it with LightningTipBot:
- Go to LightningTipBot. Enter "/help" if you don't know your Lightning address.
- See your address? Mine is callebtc@ln.tips
- Optional: Enter "/advanced" to get an anonymous address if you don't want to doxx your Telegram username.
- Put your Lightning address into your nostr profile
- In LightningTipBot, register your nostr pubkey with "/nostr add
- You're done! You'll receive zaps and they will be shown under your zapped posts!
## 3) NIP-57 support
Zaps (those which appear under a note) are formalized in NIP-57. Currently, they are supported by the following services. This is probably not a complete list and tomorrow there might be even more:
### 💜 Sending (Nostr clients):
- Snort.social (https://snort.social/)
- Damus (http://damus.io/)
### ⚡️ Receiving (Lightning wallets):
- LightningTipBot (https://LN.tips)
- VIDA (https://vida.live/)
- Stacker.news (https://stacker.news/)
- strike.army (https://strike.army/)

Have you confirmed this is working on Damus? I’m still not seeing it!
Hmmm. I’m not seeing anything on Damus. I think I zapped you and I assume this post should have a bunch
I’ve never seen Damus so erratic. Attack of the NIPs!
You only get question marks because you keep saying things that completely contradict most of the evidence in plain sight.
1. Twitter has gotten noticeably worse since Elon took over. Verification is more cluttered and less useful. Timeline is a complete disaster of content that I don’t actually subscribe to.
2. Elon will not adopt nostr. Twitter has only become more hostile towards open protocols including limiting its API and actively suppressing discussion about other platforms since Elon took over.
3. I don’t know what you mean about Elon bailing out Jack… Jack started to make a clear transition away from twitter well before Elon made what is turning out to be a historically terrible investment only made more abused by his insane legal efforts to get out of the deal.
