make zaps only apply to comments and they'll stop.
Not necessarily.
Many people post to help spread awareness of something, and SN is just one of those targets where a post will help further boost the signal. Any sats received are just icing on the cake.

If you want to spread awareness, at least include a comment to the post explaining what exactly you want people to be aware of. Link spamming spreads annoyance.

I don't want to go that far, as there are high quality posts I want to boost. Compromise: no sats on links, only discussion posts.
