I will never understand why on Nostr I get sats for completely useless things and receive zero for things I consider more interesting.


Nice play.


The perceptions of values and feelings are unique. This happens when we see something uninteresting done by other people (in our opinion), which at that moment, what he did, was important to him.

It makes sense, doesn’t it?!


Same!


I don't know what to tell you, does it seem normal to you to receive a zero for a note like this?

I find as a creative person my thoughts are often way diff than others and hence not so popular/understood or zapable. when i start saying stuff id consider boring or not interesting I often get zapped. like btc phrases like 'stay humble stack sats'.


It is likely that your art has been lost in the middle of so many other notes that are constantly being built - without forgetting the number of new users #nostr.

Keep practicing your passion! You’re good at it. New #zaps are already on the way with every note! ♥🫂


Thank you 🙏


I've noticed there is something that I havent been doing and perhaps am not good at which is cultivating emotions in others via my posts. For eg Madex BTC art account has very emotive posts that make you feel something (against the state for eg which Bitcoiners love) and hence want to buy as a way to connect with the feeling. This is something I aim to work on in my own posts as time goes on.

For eg this post above is very factual in its content and doesnt relate to the art in terms of an emotion to make a reader feel something. I have been doing similar posts and I think maybe best to try and evoke an emotion with a post as well as your account more generally.

I wrote the above and then noticed the video which I hadn't at first.

The video with music is a nice touch and did give me an emotional response but unfortunately in my client it was blank and didn't want to make me want to click it. When I went out of my way to do so it was actually quite nice. I wonder if it might work better in other clients or perhaps best in all clients as a social media post from another platform (how ironic!) which may give a better preview.


I don't make notes with the intention of taking sats, I'm just saying that from my point of view some notes are more cared for than others and do not receive feedback.
I don't know if it depends on the client or the fact that there are no algorithms.
Anyway, thank you for your thoughts. 🙏


You figured out marketing. Emotional stuff (from fear to sex) sells.


The time I have been here I can say that a lot of artistic content like yours or others I think they have not found the ideal niche of users, it does not mean that there is no one who values it I think it is not visible to everyone.


You are kind to the words, Jhonny. Thank you for joining us here. This is an incredible talent and I endorse your words!


I like all expressions of art.


Perfect 😅


Very often I make reposts but it bothers some and so I avoid it.
The same note published at different times has different results, without the algorithm I see no solution.


We are still early within the protocol, maybe the solution is in the bridges that #nostr helps for interoperability on other platforms. Thus, contents such as art will have more exposure to different users.


Oui, il y a des problèmes de visibilité...


It’s weird no?


Utility is in the eye of the beholder


Very weird, it's something inexplicable


Simply, people value different things. And it is fine.


You're right, sometimes it's better not to ask questions and accept what comes


Same. 🫂 Can be frustrating.

My working theory is that things that contain less information have a wider appeal and are more easily digested.


It is not frustrating it is just incomprehensible.
I have come to the conclusion that it doesn't matter.
Every #zap counts, no matter what it comes for.


Repost as you think best fits you. I appreciate your art and hope to buy one some day 🙂

You are a creator on nostr and you are absolutely appreciated. There just isn't any client yet that helps you promote your content beyond just throwing some hashtags to the void - which is just not reliable (web2.0 will speak with you about why)

Your audience is slowly entering, and you will build your niche. Clients will develop to have better tools for you. Nos.social has a creator's program, have you checked with them?

If one day you want to buy one of my paintings, my DM is always open to receiving requests 🙏💜🫂🎨


i agree reposting doesnt annoy me. especially to get in front of diff time zones seems good idea if you can schedule the repost as I do :)


I think the boost feature should have some sort of random time delay.

if you boost something, its likely you've just seen it - meaning others are likely to have seen it if you have any significant overlap with your followers.

Time delayed boost basically functions as taking the note and throwing it in the air until it drops back into someone else's feed - which with a time delay is likely to be a different time zone and therefore increasing your reach.


I read many of your posts but can’t understand them 😅 so specifically for you I think this is true. Appealing to the masses is overrated though.


This is the constant eye opener of #value4value for any creator/creative!


You right


Some analog between the functionality  between short notes and long form with fine dining 🙃

its easy to understand the flavor profile of candy, or most of it with a single taste. Quality meals however take some time. Not just taste, but a wholistic experience covering more than the essentials of what constructs a meal.

You could probably just throw the raw ingredients mix them up and eat, but a propper platting and setting enhances it. Proper utensils and dining ware can also help, but not necessicary.


I want a post feature that does something similar for people with sensitive identities. Randomly time every response such that it is impossible to tell where in the solar-system they are posting from by checking timing.


I tell myself that it's good for my ethos, even if most people are like, Whatever she said. 😅


Keep doing you 🤗


Yes I schedule the repost for a diff time using nostrgrowth.arcmapbtc.com which is a client I built on top of coracle which added this functionality. I just schedule it for the next day so its not immediately.


Interesting idea. Do you code in JS? Could be a relatively easy addition to a client such as Coracle or my own nostrgrowth.arcmapbtc.com which is based on coracle. This last one allows scheduling of a post but not randomly at this time. Could be a nice feature though.
