Well, Nostr taken as a whole is very money-focused with the "zaps" and will probably move further in that direction, which annoys me greatly. It's completely optional though AFAICS. All we need now is a client that completely ignores financial transactions, except maybe for use cases where it makes sense, like buying and selling (and for that accept other currencies as well, like XMR). I.e. no tips for posts ("zaps"), no rating posts based on how much BTC they have received via zaps, no rating poll options in the same way (which I think I have seen in a screenshot of (a beta version of?) Amethyst), none of the "high signal" BS that basically seems to mean rating importance by how much money you have to waste (I don't mean paying for relay operation). Maybe a relay that does the same as well, to really hammer the point home.

The wet dream of Cryptobros. Bringing nothing to the society. The web we have is good, it is just too much restricted by national lawmakers.

Define "web3" -
hyolobrika@berserker.town's status on Wednesday, 05-Apr-2023 20:34:02 JST Hyolobrika I like how flexible/extendable #ActivityPub is compared to #Nostr.
You can just make new types so long as you have a URI to describe them. Whereas in Nostr they have to be approved by fiatjaf etc and they probably won't be approved if they "shitcoin". IIRC.Disinformation Purveyor :verified_think: likes this.
