just testing the site but a few questions:
  • why have to login to tip someone?
  • if I have to login, would you add lightning to login?, just like stacker.news.
why have to login to tip someone?
This is a great point. One obvious way using Bitcoin would allow you to differentiate is that I can pay for a piece of content without creating an account. You only need to know that a payment arrived.

You still need a way to tie the payment proof with the user though. So they need some kind of account known to the app.
Maybe that means that the app should just use wallet IDs as the most base ID type?
reply
Not necessarily. You could just store a cookie or something that gives them access to the content. If they want forever access from any device perhaps they’d require an account (or just let them download it).

tbh this is where something like RGB / Taro could come in. give them an access token in their wallet. offload almost all user account behavior to wallets. less liability on the web app owners
