I don’t fully disagree with your point on cross posting. If a creator makes something for IG and also posts it here themselves, that makes sense, and I don’t think that feels inauthentic at all. A great example of that is Max Demarco sharing his videos here that he’s also posted to youtube. The key is that Max is active and engages with people here in addition to wherever else he posts his content. Nostr needs more of that. What we don’t need is auto-populated or auto-crossposted content, where it’s essentially a bot posting content siphoned off from some other platform, and then the original creator never even interacts here. Even worse if the auto-posted content accepts zaps, because that feels scammy.

I’m glad you give this a lot of thought. I believe Primal has so much potential, and am excited to see things continue to grow. In general, nostr/Primal needs to offer something unique that people can’t get elsewhere. Zaps are key to that. Engaging creators who will dedicate some exclusive attention and content here, I think, is the way to go. But as Billy Joel says, “You may be wrong for all i know, but you may be right.” 😂
