I like your take, but hopefully there is room for someone who doesn't shower jb55 in likes and rose petals for everything he says. My response is genuine and from experience. I appreciate the man for the beauty that he is creating. I'll give the response he doesn't want to hear but has a place.

This is a good take. Tough love works wonders. Just don’t start tough love with an insult. Whining was not what he was doing and if anything, the guy just builds without sharing any of the actual tough shit that goes along with it. I know whining, this ain’t it. And by starting off with that, your overall point will be discounted, discarded and that’s unfortunate.
Good point, the wording could've been better.
I don’t ask for this. I’m simply trying to build the best nostr client while simultaneously trying to make it sustainable. I can’t control how people respond to my posts. I am not fishing for compliments, and my posts are not made to generate sympathy to get zaps. I am m posting what things cost to get an idea what it’s like to run the most popular nostr relay, and to point out that zaps can not sustain it at this number of users and zaps. This why I have been focusing on bringing damus to the masses so that we can get to the scale where it might be possible.

Thank you for your honest response. Sorry for using the word whining. I hope you do understand that I am on your team, even though I'm not being nice to you. I know what it's like to start a business and live with the uncertainty of revenue and I hope you make the right financial decisions to finish your work. I will keep supporting devs, and you.
