My thoughts on Nostr so far.

It's far too free.

There are bills to pay, and the users are not paying them.

There is ample money flowing around, and most is not from the users.

This never works. It's a lesson that the internet has learned over and over again, if users are not covering the cost of their usage, either by being forced to pay (best way), or from donations, then they are the product.

Nostr is going to be a case of this lesson learned once more.
