skins, perks, events

Skins, which is to say purely cosmetic status symbols that do not affect gameplay.

How this could be done for nostr clients: imagine your user profile glowing in a purple color, flames around your pfp. Why? Because you're a super-supporter of this client, so that client will show your profile in a different way.

If people enjoy the action loop within a game and the 3-5 seconds of actions which they repeat for 8 hours straight... and we can emulate that without becoming an endless feed of doom... Maybe we should get everyone hooked on a daily Nostr dosage. Like the season/battle pass every time people logon they get rewarded with something. Should there be achievements/trophies within Nostr for accomplishing things? I'm way overthinking this and the gamification aspect.

has incredible insight into how to design gamification that rewards effort without being addictive or evil.

Damn, this might be a way of gamifying apps that I might actually like. Fascinating framework 🤩. Seems like Nostrocket could easily beat quite some apps on the meaning front.

This is a significant part of Discord's business model, as far as I can tell.
