I half looked at fanfare, but they do it via encrypted events right? And as such there are client dependecies for this to work? I think doing this via relays makes more sense, i.e. paying the subscription or whatever simply unlocks additional content from the relay where the stuff is stored. This way it works with any client and the experience is seamless all around. Oh, and i paid for your think twice via two different ways and it does not work. First i opened the link on my phone and paid the invoice; after waiting endlessly i opened up fanfare on my desktop, signed in with my profile, then paid your invoice again and still....nothing other than "waiting for payment"

I think giftwrap seals make the most sense so it can’t be trivially rebroadcasted, not sure if thats how they are doing it. I am biased because i an thinking about giftwrap support in nostrdb, which will be nice since you will still be able to query unwrapped things.
It’s a zap paywall like some substacks, and some cia-mossad propaganda outlets like nyt require

Well, on the one hand there is the " - "tag, on the other you could personalized/watermarked events to identify the source of the leak and ban that customer if you find out. Dunno, my bias goes towards the best measure against piracy being as seamless as possible, and the moment i have to go to a specific app you already lost me. 🏴‍☠️⛵️

And you cant get more seamless than the flow i just described, its perfect in that sense
Ok, I figured out the problem and deployed a fix for it! Sorry for the wait! Maybe launching on a Friday is a bad idea 😅 The problem was your minibits lightning provider doesn't publish the P tag with the payer's pubkey which our payment verification checks for. However, the pubkey is also available in the description tag, so we now fallback to that. No problem! Appreciate you trying it. I apologize for the problems but we just made our payment system more robust. Thanks again! Everyone who has already purchased your note will be able to unlock it now. No need to pay again.
Should be fixed now! I apologize for that but fixing this bug was very helpful! 🫡 No need to pay again. It should unlock next visit.
Should be fixed now. No need to pay again. I apologize for the issues but we fixed a decent sized bug thanks to this so I appreciate it! Let me know if you have any more issues 🫡
FWIW We hope to integrate our functionality into as many other clients as possible so you don't need to use Fanfares to view purchased content
We fixed a bug that was probably the culprit. Please visit Elsat's note on fanfares again and it should unlock for your account, no payment required. Let me know if you have more problems!
We fixed a bug that was probably to blame. Please try visiting Elsat's post on fanfares again. No payment required. It should unlock this time for your account since you already paid.

@arkinox if yall can figure out how to do gated content with requiring nip-07/other login, you will drastically reduce barriers to use. If y’all haven’t already, try bitchat. To me it is the most refreshing onboarding experience, as it hides create account/login.
Fanfares makes an account automatically when you show up and even gives you a lightning wallet to receive/send funds instantly. You don't need to sign in to use it. If you zap from another client, then you need to login with that same account on Fanfares to see the secret content.
