Bingo. There's a perverse FOSS obsession that's hurting Nostr. Profit motive works. Bitcoin miners make money, why the hell wouldn't Nostr Relays?

Either directly as a percent of ad revenue.

Or by tokenization.

Subscriptions don't work on social networks though. So it can't be pay-per-use.

But relays are the key to the whole thing. Setting up a relay should be as easy as installing an EXE and taking 20 seconds of setup time.

Yeah, I've heard of the expectation of getting things for "free" as being part of the fiat, Web 2.0 mindset.

I'm no fan of a subscription model either, but I think I could get with a pay per use model, which I don't see as the same exact thing. Like if I want to read a particular article or note/post, I might be willing to pay for that with a micro-payment of a few sats, possibly. I'm not sure, though, because it hasn't really been tested, to my knowledge.
