Zapvertising > Spamvertising
Satograms and other services like it are really missing the mark on their approach, and anyone using them for spamvertising is probably wasting a large percent of whatever sats they’re spending to send those messages. Lightning wallet UI varies GREATLY and in many cases users will never ever even see those messages. For example, I never open WoS to check it for messages, only sats sent/received. And I just checked my NWC wallet on Alby out of curiosity and see multiple 1 sat payments with messages which I would never normally look at because I don’t use that wallet that way.
Nostr-based Zapvertising would work much better, because your app is designed to show you notifications and messages in a user friendly way, and those UIs can be improved more easily and more consistently than the multiple lightning wallets that people use and switch between, allowing better features for advertisers and better controls for users.
