If it wasn't for you I wouldn't know what's happening in the world. I only use nostr and this is my main news source

🗞️ POW

I'm honored to fulfill this role @Sourcenode I try every day to assume this responsibility to the best of my ability. I don't want anyone on Nostr to be short of information. And honestly, on the contrary, I humbly find that the @FLASH account is often more relevant than others on other platforms.

Can I ask a legit question? What’s the average salary in USD in your country? Like, I feel tha .25 an hour probably affords you th average life where you live?

2$ won't even buy me a coffee and croissant on the terrace. Here the average salary is around 2500€ or 3000$.

You are invaluable to this space, my friend. Thank you for what you do. Watching the congressional hearing now because of you.

Agreed. If nostr succeeds you will have built a brand that will pay you back. Don't burn yourself out though. Remember to take breaks and touch grass 🫂

Thank you very much for your message @Detective Deft Defector this recognition gives me a huge boost.

Thanks for the reminder. I know I recently learned that after 250 intensive days I had to withdraw for 6 full days.

Take as much time as you need. I like the news, but I can live without it. If you're gone for a while you'll be missed and maybe get more zaps when you return 😄

i use a backpack when i do that with my cat

Nostr is not a real job. It's entertainment so do not except to make a living wage of it anytime soon.

back in the day, a daily newspaper cost 25 cents... which would equal roughly 216 sats today... and if you had a monthly subscription, that cost would be reduced to roughly $5.00/mo or 17 cents/day, which equals roughly 147 sats today... my point is that if you benefit from the ad-free nostr experience, you should consider financially contributing the cost of a newspaper to the community. everyone is in a different circumstance, has different resources, is at a different place in their btc journey, has a different justification for zapping, etc... regardless, imo an increase in zaps will help keep nostr's signal strong and build the entire community. lastly, in my experience, I typically get back what I zap in... in other words, pay it forward and it will eventually come back to you... and if it doesn't who cares... you are a nostr pioneer, helping to build a very valuable freedom tech protocol, and giving is better than receiving... peace.

Almost 2k SATs is a good earn for a day. 👍

If it doesn’t matter then why mention it at all? 🤦🏻‍♂️
