there could be a timer implemented into a window? when you hit reply, it starts counting up in sats on the zap (which would be auto since you're replying) and the longer you take to respond (the assumption is you're engaging more than one word answers there). the more you auto zap the parent comment. when writing your own comment in response to a post, same thing applies, only its the main post that gets the zaps.
but i have zero coding knowledge of how to implement that. i don't even know if you could automatically bill someone via zaps, i'm unsure its possible as that transaction needs to be signed effectively? thats all way above my head. but i'm interested to hear how @kr and the team of devs would do something like that if they chose to do so.
That's a very fun experiment proposal. All the miserly hodling cheapskates would flip out.

i can see them now, losing their minds as they furiously type at super speed to keep the post long but the costs low 🤣 just better hope they don't accidently leave a reply window open whilst browsing something else. that could be a big bill to come back to.

timing things is like tests at school, very stressful. I would definitely leave the site if that happened LOL
reply
Although meant quite tongue in cheek, it does highlight some obstacles. I wouldn't be too pleased to find a huge bill. And I don't know if I like enforcing zaps if you are engaging. Zaps are a choice... But I do wish more users would choose to zap.

As someone who has on occasion tabbed away and found an open comment window hours later, I think I'd be broke in a heartbeat.

You and me both. My comment was meant very tongue in cheek, but it does highlight an obstacle to overcome. Needs to have built in redundancy should you tab away for example.
