Life is about give and take.
Personally, I believe that when people consistently ignore this balance, things tend to break down—sometimes in serious ways.
Back to this week’s issue: it isn’t any one person’s fault. Generally speaking, the user should carry the least amount of burden.
At the same time, users should remember that this decentralized platform is what allows them to get paid directly—no middlemen, no percentage cuts.
So yes, we give, and we take.
If there’s one key takeaway, it’s this: for the system to work—and for frustrations to stay manageable—everyone has to participate. When content isn’t being zapped, artists feel like they gave but never got to take. That imbalance is what ultimately leads to frustration.
Good morning nostr.
