 Apparently I “may be the only one” using Lightning on #Nostr … any #zaps sent to this note ARE NOT REAL https://i.nostr.build/9z2mv.jpg  nostr:note1ju88tlqrqjjry63mumet2kper8n8dnqlshs2qp0qm72m86khh3yqctvl3m 
 This has me wondering if I’m even real 
 😳who have I been zapping all this this time then??? Fuckk I gotta take my meds. Schizin out 
 Whats with these pricks trying to shit all over every attempt at making things better.

Do they just want to see the world burn? I dont get it, whats their incentive? 
 Laziness. It's easier to destroy than to build. 
 Ego. Followers. Clout. They all simp for eachother on Twitter, or try and craft the perfect “burn”. The place sucks. 
 #nostr #zaps 🤙💜 
 When LARPers cast stones at something, you know it's worth doing. 
 Zapped. I am Spartacus. 
 What % of twitter users have lightning zaps enabled?  Oh... I see.  

What a ridiculous hill to die on.   
 Honestly forgot that udi exists. 
 25 million accounts in 30 days? 🧐 
 25 million total as of that point in time, duh. 🤦🏻‍♂️ 

Still, the vast majority of those have got to be bots, not real people. Most bots don’t set up a lightning node? Not a problem. 
 That's pretty badass if you are the only lightning user.  What a forward thinker!  

Zapping you from my non-lightning wallet. 
 Honestly one of the best ways to promote nostr is to tell then that Udi isn't here.

And if he is actually here, well I've never seen him and I can easily keep it that way.

I mean, he can't shill his stupid $6000 cat jpegs here so he has no incentive to be here. 
 no udi is an underrated feature 
 He is here @udi 
 would have been a better place had you not told me that 😉  
 All good. He doesn't use it 
 Probably because nobody here will buy his stupid cat jpegs so he would rather go back to Twatter to shill them and shit on nostr instead. 
 I think the data source of stats.nostr.band should be taken with a grain of salt. If you just look at the number of zap providers, it's north of 650 different lightning nodes being used with almost 2.7M zaps recorded JUST on the 2261 relays that the site tracks.

I don't think Scott has any idea what is going on. 
 who is Scott, can I eat him?  
 Scott is a shitty dj and an even worse influencer lol. Grateful for you walker 🫡
