 Spent a whole lot of time on nostr without zaps lately (lazy to look for the script after reinstalling client)… it was more than fine. 
 I think not being able to receive it is worse than not being able to send it. Either way, one of the things that sets Nostr apart from centralized social media platforms is the ability to engage with notes privately or anonymously. That’s only possible with Zaps. 
 Why is that only possible with zaps? 
 I assume it's the ability to send sats with note anonymously and communicating via lighting address 
 You can communicate anonymously and privately on nostr without zaps. Give to Nostr what belongs to Nostr, and to the zap (one NIP) what belongs to the zap 
 You cannot communicate anonymously in public without zaps. That’s extremely powerful. 
 Better go tell that to all the nyms on nostr. Some don’t even add the zaps, they must have their reasons… 
 Someone zapped you the answer. 
 I’m still waiting for a valid one 
 You sent me a zap, which is public not private, it is anonymous, it does contain a message, but the message is not private. I don’t think it proves your point. Don’t get me wrong. Zaps are added value, but Nostr would still have many advantages in term of data résilience, décentralisation, portability… even without zaps. 
 I didn’t send you a zap message. What are you talking about? 😂 
 Ok, you have proven your point. You’re indeed the kind of person I should not engage a conversation with. All the best 
 Yes. Wait. What?

 Yeah when people play silly instead of engaging with the arguments being made I quickly lose interest
