100 sats \ 4 replies \ @unschooled OP 7h \ parent \ on: my problem with zaps the_stacker_muse
thanks i appreciate that.
despite the provocative title, i didnt mean it as a complaint, but a reflection on how even though what we have on sn is great, the rewards structure seems to promote conformist behaviour for zaps/comments. but, then again, it promotes zaps, which might be good enough.
this was tangential, not a major concern of mine.
yes, this is indeed the question. i'll admit i'm learning and i'm quite enjoying the process. good thing i enjoy a challenge!

it might be imagined.
i discussed it here #1056786 where undisciplined informed me of the concept of keynsian beauty contest, which i think captures what im getting at pretty well.

I'm not sure about top-post zapping as a form of conformity. I tell myself that if I happen to get a front-page post, it gets zapped because people became aware, read and then appreciated my post. Yes, I guess that I'm that naive, haha.
Either way, in the spirit of being the delusion you want to have, I mostly zap non front-page posts: more in recent and what I get alerted about in notifications from stackers I subscribe to. And the majority is comments.

being the delusion you want to have,
ha-ha! i'm something of an expert in this myself, and i'm not talking about zapping...
