I wrote some words about #zaps and advertising, i.e. #zapvertising I’m publishing them on #nostr first and would appreciate any feedback you have before I share them with a wider audience. You can read it here: http://zapvertise.com — ALL YOUR (ADVERTISING) MODELS ARE BROKEN The modern advertising model on centralized social media platforms is, to put it mildly, a shitshow. It’s annoying for users, gives barely any monetary value to creators, and is questionably effective for advertisers.

Well done Walker, great work. Love to see the old models getting turned on their head.

I'm sending the zaps collected of this nite to my friend nostr:npub1jksk8u7s6xhfmjv4qv5q0lamj3ugezcnrfjycmyjm57m2m0s5duspfcsrp And testing this zap ⚡ forwarding in Amethyst 🆒
Shoot did I sent the wrong link? Still getting the hang of it but I love the site, Pablo 🤌
this article is great, nostr:npub1cj8znuztfqkvq89pl8hceph0svvvqk0qay6nydgk9uyq7fhpfsgsqwrz4u I'm going to make highlighter a whole lot better, more discoverable and way easier to use this article is great and I totally agree with the points you're making and I'm already writing code to prepare for what you're describing here

Overall this is great. You’ve gathered, organized, and articulated really well the potential for a new monetization path that we’ve been discussing but haven’t fully fleshed out. Main feedback is the issue with “abhorrent” content getting zapped to the top. We need to find a solution for that. I get that you don’t have one at the moment, so you brushed over it quickly. I don’t know what it is yet, have some ideas, but it’s the biggest gap I see to this whole idea succeeding. A fatal flaw at the moment. Thanks for putting this up.
Thanks for the notes, Marks! I agree that it could be an issue but I do not think it’s a “fatal flaw.” Ultimately the fact that value is required to zap—with more value required to zap at the top of the list—makes it price prohibitive to be a bad actor.

Nice work, Walker. Great article. Every corporation should consider having a #Zapvertising plan. I wonder if #[3] will mention Nostr at his upcoming Bitcoin and Lightning for Corporations event.
The fatal flaw is when you have a popular account with lots of children following and a dumbass decides to spend a wad of sats and put abhorrent material on a zap for kicks and giggles. At that point, does the #zaptertizing model become too wild west that companies avoid it?
I’ve tried to zap this note twice with a large zap and an advertisement and neither are showing up. 😆
Who do I contact for support? 😉 #[3] I sent two 50k sat zaps to Walker’s note and neither are showing up. I can paste the content in a response to this note. Maybe I’m including too much?
Check out the No Strings podcast. Are you building or creating great content? Do you have a community to bring to Nostr? Hit us up and let’s have you on the show! We’re looking to bring visibility to new communities on Nostr to help with adoption outside of the first wave that joined.

Okay, i had to get my ipad out since im mostly on android. Tried to sent two zapped comments after installing breez. I must've misconfiguration something since the zaps went through but the comments didn't.
I downgraded to 1.4.0 (1) and was able to post. I’ll write up a GitHub issue when I’m at a place that I can.

I'm pretty sure this already came up actually. First. It was able to be reported client-side on Amethyst, so if you're using that, you don't see it. I'm sure Damus and other highly developed apps allow for user reporting until devs can deal with it. After that, relay operators can actually delete any file if it's particularly nefarious.
🤝
Took 3 attempts to zap 50k. 😆 #[2] for debugging purposes, did all 3 of the zaps make it to your wallet? Only one shows up in the note, but the payments left my wallet. Put them toward more content!
