Holy shit, I think I just realized a direct and concrete way that I’ve personally experienced to how #Nostr completely changes the social incentives:

• Rage and hateful posts on Twitter get the most attention.
• Positive and happy posts on Nostr get the most zaps.

It really was just monetization all the time.

When attention is the currency, negativity and hate rise to the top because the platforms need people arguing.

When sats directly from peers are the currency, value rises to the top.

(Anyone else feel they’ve had this same experience?)

I think it's the lack of algorithm that does that, more than anything else. I've noticed that Facebook seems to show my posts primarily to those most likely to be angered by them, rather than to those most likely to appreciate them. And then because the algorithms are also built "the rich get richer...

There's also something to be said about no take-backs. If you post it, you better be comfortable with it forever!

Completely! Zapping incentive model doesn’t incentivize trolling or negativity unless it’s some neat shitposting 😜

I see what you’re doing here… you’re just trying to get more zaps by adding positive value 🤔

This folks, was my nostr moment, just makes perfect sense. Very high probability that nostr will win. We will make it. 🙌

I mean…. Why would I zap a video about the war? I’m not happy about it. I feel like a zap for me is positive messaging.

Try telling someone they are both gay and retarded on X
