what are your thoughts on zaps4follows? my take is that nostr gives us the freedom to do whatever we want. i wouldn't do it. i think it's spammy and scammy. however, i also understand with very little algorithmic help, it's hard for new npubs to gain traction. if someone wants to offer the hardest money we have for some follows and engagement, i say that proof of work, the freedom to communicate, and the free market are working as intended. on the other side of the argument, if you don't like it, you're also free to complain. nostr gives us that freedom too.
And here we are! The masks fall off sooner or later! The free and decentralized social network? 😂😂😂 but don't make me laugh. Where a slim person who has a bit of notoriety Ryan (nprofile…jmn6) orders 100 people to remove a follow from another person for very questionable reasons. Just because someone plays games like zap4follow and is called a scam? If this is the free and decentralized social I greet you all
