But I come here in hopes some objective thinkers still exist and will benefit from what I have to share ✨

BTW, all content posted that earned sats through zaps was merely text posts.

No video.

No one sees my content here. I'm on a ton of ban lists because people are just wrong in thinking bitcoin = crypto and I post about Bitcoin 🤷‍♀️

Of course, these numbers are higher when I tech yoga on Nostr, aka #yogastr, for zaps! But that's another story... 😉

Take it for a spin! Sign up for Nostr, then sign into Zaplytics.

Likes and follows are so web 2.0 and 20 years ago. It's tough to amass a following on legacy social media platforms without paying a monthly fee.

But on Nostr, you get monetary feedback as you build community.

Zaplytics lets me see who my most loyal supporters are, like my friend Sam! 🤘

TL;DR: There are zaps that tell me:

• Folks like The Format
• I should run a marathon
• I should build a cat shelter

I can even see that 7:00 pm is "rush hour" on Nostr according to my zaps. So that's a great time to post.

My top content is shouting out my friend Sam, for his band, The Format, releasing the single "Shot in the Dark," crowdsourcing my decision to run a marathon (maybe), and crowdsourcing whether I should build a cat shelter.

Considering I pay $8.72/mo for X Premium just for my content to be SEEN, isn't it nice to earn (what is today, with bitcoin down) $7.04 for the stuff I post?

I'm not even trying. I just post what I want.

Think of zaps as getting tipped for your content on Nostr. Here's a look at how much I've been zapped in 30 days—more than 8K sats ⚡️

Guess what? You don't.

Go enjoy the lack of algo. Enjoy the reverse chronological feed of 2007 Twitter.

Provide value. Make friends. All without the cringe factor the algos have trained you on.

Go.

Be free. 🫡

I get it. I really do. You've built an audience here on Bitcoin Twitter (or whatever YOUR particular Twitter is).

You don't want to start over and learn another algo...

This just cracks the surface...there are many more.

Nostr for content creators to get you started:

Video creators, there's Zap.Stream for streaming live and Hivetalk for those of us who teach live classes. (It's like Zoom but open source). 🐝

FanFares lets you post gated content people can zap with Bitcoin lightning payments in order to access.

Shoutout to @manlikekweks for the new song, btw. Not sure if you saw Derek's vibe coded app he built with Shakespeare by @SoapboxTech.

I listened to it last night @wavlake & opened ZapTrax on desktop just now & the app totally had my Wavlake history & Kweks' song was right there! #interoperability
