I think FNF would be better spent on many incredible devs volunteering to build on Nostr.

Nostr.Band is a for profit org, other means of funding suit us better.

But just fyi, new.nostr.band is in the works, it's open source, and mostly relies on our relay, not a custom api that the current website uses. If another relay implemented nip50 and nip45, the new frontend could work with it, theoretically.
