And this is it. I’m not zapping anyone else on Nostr unless I start seeing people following the example. A "circular economy" where only devs and operators spend to provide free stuff isn’t much of a circular economy, it’s just a huge scam.

Wrong currency. Bitcoin is a store of value. It's digital gold. Very good digital gold mind you, but the Medium of Exchange race is long lost.
Many people here, they talk about circular this and that, but inside they hate so much to part with their digital gold that even when making small zaps they feel little pangs of loss and regret. The worry that they might not get it zapped back reaches OCD level. That's where we are today.
Nostr needs USDT zaps. Native taproot USDT zaps over lightning. It's possible to care about Nostr more than Bitcoin, and if that's you then you have to see this.
I'm honestly don't care if folks get paid in BTC, Fiat, Stable Coins, Dark Coins, Meme Coins, gold, grains of coffee or whatever, as long as devs can somehow exchange it for food and shelter. Maxis can always swap for BTC if they so which. Looks like some folks implemented "Monero zapping", I'm sure that someone can put together USDT Zapz together. But I don't think this is what stopping folks from donating.
Freeform client? I don't use it, but the app does have a USDT wallet.
