With my limited knowledge, I kinda like this idea. Actually makes it fair for everyone in one simple tweek.

Well shit, I don't fucking know if it is actually simple.

Isn’t it already? Behind a veil of ‘professionalism’ and ‘seriousness topics’, old dudes are only watching the hottest anchors.

Yes, above and Alex Jones. Nassim

Taleb calls this the #barbell approach

Precisely. And of course you like it.

What if we abstracted it a layer further and just had the relays pay for the stories and then we pay the relay. Then we never have to even think about it and you just subscribe to the relays with the best aggregated shit and boom you automatically see all the good stories without doing any mental accounting.

I kinda like this; it's a pretty cool way of decommoditizing relays

Plus one of the biggest hurdles with micro payments in general is that humans find it hard to mentally account for. Just because we have the tech (and we do) doesn’t mean it maps to how humans think about their environments. We need to bring micro transactions in line with the limits of human attention.

Normalize micropayments.

#[7]​ and I have been talking about this in the context of content-specific relays.

e.g. you pay for the #[8]​ relay which aggregates all #footstr content and shares value back with foot-focused creators

This is the way.
