After careful consideration I pledge my allegiance to the zap only brigade. I think @npub1lrn…qnw5 is on to something profound here. Hear me out.
1. Let’s be real, we’re all looking for dopamine hits here among other desires. I am flawed enough to want mine, but not flawed enough to not want them backed by the weight of the energy of the world. Meaningless thumb taps be gone. Weight of the world or comment (PoW). Make online connections meaningful again.
2. If Devs remove the like button, there is no doubt we will zap each other more. Comrades, are we not here to usher in the circular economy?
3. We understand the value of time more than most. Our time is also more valuable than most. Do we really need to waste all of those cumulative seconds on the like button? No, we should be dialed in on this thing, save seconds here and in our real worlds.
4. Removing the like button will have somewhat of a shock and awe to newcomers. We are rewriting the rulebook for online social media engagement. The like button is an old relic to discard. If we do not do this, our kids will do in the future, as they laugh at our senile asses.
Final thought: zaps are like when the Spanish discovered chocolate in the Americas. Bitter at first, but slowly an undeniable upgrade on anything that had been before.
