I’m sorry you feel like that. We zap posts that we find newsworthy, funny, informative or otherwise of value. Usually the posts are related to what we do (Bitcoin related products). We manually zap just a handle of posts a day - nothing automated, scammy or hundreds of1 Sat zaps.
You’re right, Nostr isn’t Google ads, the zaps going directly to the content maker which we think is pretty cool. As nostr is free for anyone to say what they like, if we choose to put details of our services in the zap so be it :-)
We’re just trying it out, if people don’t like it, it won’t create any new business, and therefore not viable and we’ll try something else. Just market dynamics and us learning as we go. Until then, just mute us.
That said - it’s useful to reflect on your feedback. Thank you.

Classy response, bravo. Taking notes here. If people don’t like the zaps and it doesn’t create any new business then you funded Nostr users instead of a centralized platform for no gain to yourself. Seems fair to me. There’s gonna be some kind of advertising on Nostr especially on relays/clients that aren’t paid. There will likely also be paid ones that filter out all commercial content- which could also be cool. The best part about this whole thing is we all get to choose our sandbox.
Thanks @Cerebrum - zaps received all get recirculated to advertising (i.e. zapping others).
wish Etherfi would man up and start zapping me
No need to apologize to anyone for your kid running a 3D printing shop, and sending sats directly to people on nostr!
If anything we need more young lads to be experimenting and learning by doing in tech.
Keep calm, send sats and 3D print 🫡
