nostrich on nostr

Open in Damus

Nostr is boring. Its not dead. Its just nobody cares.
Please get rid of the like button. The like is NOT NOSTR. ZAPS ARE NOSTR. -i always hit that damn 🩷 reflexively
And normalize single zaps. Dont be bitchy virtue signalling alby suxs and google play app sux. Embrace the 1 zap. One zaps are classic and cool. And very nostr.
Make more reasons to get in the club. Right now nostr is a retirement home. Elderly 2 pm dance on Tuesday has more kicks.

What makes one zap "very nostr" isn't the amount, it's the public receipt: attention you can audit, reputation you can actually build on. So which is ...

Zaps are cool? Giving money to strangers so may not be real people is cool? In real life I don’t give a dollar to everyone who says something cool. I imagine that would be insufferable and everyone would be acting like fools just on the chance they’ll get a dollar…oh wait… Social media shou...

Be clear when you say "single zaps" and "1 zap". Do you mean a 1 sat zap? If so, be aware that some interpret them as a slight.

Zaps require custodial Lightning and are therefore gay and lame. Embrace payment targets. Use LNURL or Monero. THAT is classic and cool.
