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.

Nah likes are fine, they are also polite acknowledgements of stuff you ...well like, but don't need reposting or zapping, or sometimes even inspire a reply. Replies probably more valuable than all of these options imo.

Like/Reaction is only for "I saw your post and here's my reaction" or "I like your post". Replacing reactions completely by zaps sounded like you are trying to make nostr bitcoiner exclusive.

Shared this then. Still agree with it now. Zaps only ⚡️

I'm sure that for some like myself likes get my dopamine flowing a little, though agree that zaps are more exciting. Functionally, likes could also add value if you could sort a searchable nostr database by them, or incorportate into seach algo. But I do think it would be interesting to see how a ...

I don't need to see the same thing reposted 100 times on my feed though

What about a zap button that expresses something similar to a “dislike” button? The user experience on platforms like YouTube suffer without them imo

looking at it from a human perspective I'd say a repost is something you yourself would say or vehemently agree with, while a like is something you just like. 🥰

Yes. I guess. I'm not really onboard with this, although can't really grasp solid arguments. The marketing would have to be good, because Nostr doesn't have already mentioned reputation, doesn't solve problems of a normie..basically I'm coming to the thought that this thing is basically against onbo...

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

Craig Lively · 82w

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

And a thumbs down takes away a sat 😂

TheLOTSProject · 82w

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.
