I hope someday reposts and zaps completely replace the need for “likes”/🤙🏼.

Reposts and zaps are true value exchange…and have a real cost: your reputation or money.

Likes are superficial and exist only to inform an algorithm.

Relevance algorithms have their place, but they are best informed by a truly costly action.

sounds like a good idea

I wrote an article about that in 2015 "Why bitcoin should replace the like button - Micropayments could be a way to make content creation on the internet valuable." https://medium.com/@moritzfelipe/why-bitcoin-should-replace-the-like-button-4fe1e1d38e7a

sometimes we 'like' a post but we don't want other people to know that we liked it. and sometimes we 'like' a post not so much as to pay to show our like. #[0]

I still don’t know what a zap is… can you explain? 🙏🏼🙏🏼

What? No! Algorithm? Why?! Is it weird that I dont want a computer to customize my feed for me? *I* am the algorithm. I customize my own feed for me. Likes have their value. As bookmarks or acknowledgements. Letting someone know you read their post without integrating some kind of tracker softwar...

Just lost my zap virginity to you ;)

I just put my reputation on the line Fren with the repost of your note……. But it is merited as I concur…….

I liked your note, but it's ok, because I did so ironically.

And a thumbs down takes away a sat 😂

I love that this has over 1400 likes. 🤔

No more likes. I only zap now. If I can’t even zap one skinny sat, do I even really like it. I think not. Stay humble and zap sats!!

There is nothing wrong with algorithms choosing the content you see, if you are allowed to choose the algorithm or define the algorithm by your self.
