On Nostr, Jack Dorsey wants to replace traditional likes with “zaps”, a crypto form of payment that uses the Lightning Network for sending micropayments.

That’s right, he wants you to pay money for liking a Nostr post.
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.

This right there is a perfectly clear credo of surveillance capitalists. Just wow.

No, you stockholder-value-optimizing-robot, likes exist to inform the author that you liked their post. They exist to inject some positive emotions into the cold machine. They exist so that we can connect on a human level without trivializing it by putting into words; you know, as us humans do.

I'm not against a money channel alongside a free react emoji channel. Lightning is the right choice for that, being the most permissionless and decentralized option.

As long as they are alongside a react button having a tip button too probably better than not having it.

Wouldn't expect to use it much though. Even at hundreths of a cent.

i wouldn't use either to inform an algo though. One too superficial, the other too easily gamed by the rich.

@pre "too easily gamed by the rich" — Jack would be very confused, as you're saying this as if it's a bad thing. 😉

And since that thing won't be an actually #decentralized #cryptocurrency but just some shitty #blockchain #shitcoin, it'll be like #Steam Account Balance & Market Items or #Robux where he'll constantly take a cut every single time someone is buying, selling, transfering, or cashing out money...
