 Follower count helps monetise those posts though 😉 
 Not on nostr 
 You are missing the point, you still need people following you to engage with your content and pay you value 
 You can do that without counts … people simply follow you for your signal not superficial counts 
 I think we are stuck in semantics champ 
 No. The point being made was that on old socials you can’t monetize without a follower count because that’s what sponsors look at. 

On nostr that’s not the case as you can monetize with 0 followers simply by saying something people can relate to as long as someone shares your note out to others. 
 If people don’t hear it you get nothing, shout into the darkness 
 I did say follower "count" doesn't matter, as opposed to followers or amplifiers of your message doesn't matter. You can have a low follower count and earn money here. You can't have that on traditional socials. 
 Ok @Karnage  let’s check your social chops, assuming you like this song make it my most popular post by zaps: https://youtu.be/T6eDBZ7k8ec?si=v290YxybYnT1J5xm 
 You want me to zap you? I’m confused 
 Promote it to your people was my suggestion, don’t zap me 
 That won’t work as it’s not authentic. 
 You’ve twisted the original point of my post. If you’re “original” then your “followers” will provide you with value as you see it. Good luck in your endeavours. 
 No idea what you’re talking about 🤷‍♂️ 
 Would you rather have 3 followers that love your content and zap every post a generous amount vs 3000 that just 👍 your post and rarely zap? 
 Zap! I zap everything 
 I’m not here for either outcome so I don’t care, but if you we apply the OnlyFans model to this then I guess I prefer higher value engagement. Why not just sell something of “tangible” value rather than playing algorithms? 
 There's no algorithms here.
