@jagged_circle sorry the entire decentralized NOSTR interface is based on the lightning network. So while most clients support “likes” what it more prevalent is “Zaps” a Zap is a micropayment of bitcoin over the lightning network (one zap is equal to one Satoshi equivalent to 100 millionth of a bitcoin). This incentivizes both the infrastructure and the content. Make something people like, get paid without a central corporation exploiting.
@Fizz @meldrik in Free Software nothing ever “defeats the point” it just may not fit your particular use case. One of the advantages of Free Software is that it can be used by anyone for any reasons.
