The way I see it, you either do what Facebook did and acquire debt, donations, or issue equity until the masses have been onboarded, or you issue a subscription from the gate and make adoption take added time.

I think that the monetization method in any scenario for the social media client should be subscriptions so that advertisements don't corrupt the information flows purity. It is a key diferentiating quality of nostr.

Seems like lazy thinking to me. I thought Nostr was the arena for innovation.

What do u suggest?

It seems reasonable that clients provide visibility for companies/services, so they could work out key features within the client apps that highlight those services and share revenue. Just one idea from a construction guy. Im sure I could think of more

Also, paying for subscription is basically an investment in that client. I would love to pay for the ability to highly customize my experience and possibly have a REAL voice in a small way about features that could feasibly be added to the client instead of the “take what you get” approach. Create some loyalty
