A lot of media hosts do no moderation. So that fails.
You need to design for a hostile environment and you can trust no one unless you have reasons to do otherwise
Discussion
For sure, I thought about requiring a small sats fee in order to publish. Or, some sort of WoT. But, for now the ratioed option seemed like the best to start and gauge from there.
A fee comes with the problem that content can now be censored by refusing to sign an event saying they paid the fee.
Why do you need to sign an event saying paid?
You cannot enforce the fee otherwise
how about lnurl-withdraw or cashu sent with the video?
Cashu may as well be a signed event, like zaps.
LNURLW is not proof (it is an offer to pay, not proof of payment)
Isnt a directly taken "offer to pay" a proof? What do I dont see in the context?
Or you mean you need the proof for "accounting" purposes?
