I see donations and likes/shares as a real-life measuring stick for the quality and reach of my work.

With an average of 3 retweets and shares per episode, it's a failure. And with 13,420 sats over 7 episodes, it's not a big deal, but it's something. Many people in the space would be happy to get such a gift for 18 hours of work.

Zaps are just likes that aren't fake. They aren't going to make you a milliono bucks, but they might make you happy.
