10 sats \ 7 replies \ @Undisciplined 4 Apr \ on: Einstein would probably be in an autism program today mostly_harmless
What's with all the freebie's you deadbeat?
Where are all these zaps going?
What is a freebie? I've never understood this.

It's when you don't have enough sats in your custodial wallet1. Then your post is marked as
freebie
:I didn't have 420 sats for ~mostly_harmless since I setup autowithdrawals such that any excess above 100 sats gets withdrawn to my LND node and you must have enabled free posts in your territory settings (checkbox below post cost). You can disable it, then everyone has to pay the full cost. It will show a QR code if they don't have enough sats in their custodial wallet.
Freebie items are only visible to people who have enabled greeter mode in their settings or if they got zapped. This is the help message for greeter mode:
UX around freebies with attached wallets is still WIP.
Maybe we should simply attempt to pay the full cost first before creating the item as a freebie. I would be happy to pay the ~mostly_harmless fee :)

but only if the fee is not increased for spam reasons. Then you can't post if you can't pay the fee. ↩

If you don't have sats in your wallet, you get to post for free in territories that allow it and comment for free. It's our onramp for non-bitcoiners or non-lightning bitcoiners or lazy bitcoiners.
Freebie posts have limited visibility until they're zapped by someone with non-zero trust.
@ek is exclusively using attached wallets (auto-withdrawals to zero and zaps/pays from an attached wallet). It's the closest thing we have to non-custodial at the moment as it's still custodial but only temporarily. We haven't adapted freebies to account for wallet attachments yet.
