Yep. I’ve seen it. FUCK YouTube.

At this point, I’ve committed to posting EVERYTHING here on Nostr and only posting every other day there. I’m so sick of the bullshit where subscribers and views keep going up but “real watch time” somehow never budges. But I need those 500hrs of real watch time (however they are discounting the watch time I AM getting) to monetize there. Just screaming into the wind, obviously. On the flip side, I’ve earned around $5 USD equivalent in sats since starting here. Obviously not enough to retire or anything, but at least I’m EARNING ANYTHING. I don’t expect to be a millionaire overnight. I just expect PROGRESS and a path towards it. Apparently that’s too much to ask anywhere else.

lol. “Artists and creators”. Most are no-talent AI prompters and ardent self-help consuming beggars.

Believe it or not, there are actually real/legit artists and creators trying to use social media to promote their work and generate some revenue. Yes, there’s a lot of AI garbage. But that doesn’t negate the fact that there are many legit artists too. The fact that those platforms let the AI slop push out legit artists just makes my point all the more compelling.

Well that last bit is just life. If you have an audience of Mr. Krabs clones, then you are going to struggle no matter WHAT your product. Same if you just suck and no one likes your work. But at least there isn’t an artificial barrier between me and my audience paying me here. BOOM. THERE IT IS. Feel free to pay me if you like it. DONE. I like the Wavlake monetization model too of “no gatekeeping, we just take our small fee of the top when forwarding”. As long as that fee doesn’t get overbearing, it’s a simple strategy.

I like Wavlake too. I think every app should allow users to designate a portion of their INCOMING zaps to be forwarded to the devs to support them. Damus sorta-kinda tried, but they made it for your outgoing zaps, which is counterintuitive. If your app allows me to earn revenue as an artist, such as with Wavlake, then I’m happy to automatically forward some of what I earn to you as it comes in. But if all I’m doing is consuming content and zapping it, then I don’t want to also pay extra to the dev. That’s a complete loss for me as the consumer.

Agreed. I agree with your assessment on the incomming vs outgoing payment “tax” model as well.

I don’t think you understand what the word “most” means.

I’ll teach you what “muted” means. Bye bye.

Love it when they learn about mute 😂

😂😂

I love how it’s all “I just meme” until there is a dissenting opinion, then ego gets all huffy and a passive aggressive note gets sent *while acknowledging the point of the dissenting opinion*. Smart AND consistent.

"Right? 😂 Ain't it wild when they finally get the mute game? What’s the funniest moment you’ve seen when they figured it out? 🤔"
