I also think the focus on zaps is incredibly foolhardy. Most people using social media applications are not expecting to get financially compensated for posting. They are there to either connect with their friends or find sexual partners. I say this as a relatively early Bitcoiner — both my entire net worth and income were Bitcoin in 2014. ( In case someone an observer thinks I am exaggerating, here is an article from 2015 mentioning me: ) But Bitcoiners are subject to a specific kind of myopia these days, where every bit of software has to orbit around Bitcoin. I think it not only makes the software in question less relevant and usable, but it gives Bitcoin an Amway kind of varnish socially.
