Time for nostr devs to put up or shuup. 😎
GM Nostr,
We've been working on a number of projects, in the background, including a Nostr-based git HTTP server, and we've been considering our pricing model for them. We have received enough donations to reserve the git server, and nostr:npub1qdjn8j4gwgmkj3k5un775nq6q3q7mguv5tvajstmkdsqdja2havq03fqm7 and nostr:npub1ecdlntvjzexlyfale2egzvvncc8tgqsaxkl5hw7xlgjv2cxs705s9qs735 are going to be launching the beta version of that #thoon. We are excited to use it, ourselves, as it's frustrating fighting other login methods. Nostr is simply less friction.
We are aiming for a base storage of 1 GB for an organization (the owner npub and the collaborator npubs it invites), with additional storage purchasable. 1 GB is more than most dev teams use, and we want to keep our running costs low. If it turns out to be too little, we will increase the baseline. It will be bundled together with a media and blossom server, and a subscription to theforest (we will credit you anything you have paid for theforest), as well as access to our other inhouse systems.
This is also just a fun way and easy way to help support our efforts, and to make sure your support requests get faster responses. The subscribers will be invited to help us Design Think our systems and applications. *We build with you and for you!*
We are also negotiating group discounts from other service providers, which will be offered to anyone on our NIP-05 list.
We will be controlling access to those servers, and to the other functionality we have planned, over the https://gitcitadel.nostr1.com relay and the gitcitadel.com NIP-05 list. That is a read-protected relay, unlike https://theforest.nostr1.com, and any Gitcitadel team members you see on there have paid for the access, themselves.

Discussion
😁
Well, I expect the subscription will get more attractive, once we get the actual git server and media server online.
But it's fun to have a private chat, until then, and I wanted to give an update concerning the pricing.
Hey, speaking of putting up or shutting up, when are you subscribing? 😂
Don't leave me alone in there, with that nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl chick.
I am currently subscribed at a price of $0/month
Or at least, I think I am.
https://gitcitadel.nostr1.com/ can you go there and see the four test notes?
no, apparently one of the other relays then
You were grandfathered onto theforest, yes.
Ah ok. Nostr.land is good enough for me :)
Well, this relay serves a totally different purpose, of course. It's not for normal tweeting or whatnot.
Yes.
You want IA on the NFDB instance?
Surprising fact, about 60% of Nostr events on a relay are read less than 5 times per day, and only by 5% of all clients.
Doesn't really surprise me, when you consider that most people follow the same small handful of people (including you, but not including me) and everyone's feed is just follows. Probably mostly people looking at trending on Primal.
That's why people give up. Can spend weeks or months screaming pointlessly into the void. And that's why our clients won't be follows-based. You get on theforest and post, and the entire Internet will see it, the end.
A lot of them are old events as well.
Yeah, especially mine. LOL People like stuff from two years ago.
So, IA?
Ask Chip. Above my pay grade.
Clicked on this to offer my expertise. Turns out I don’t even understand the question. 😆
It recently occurred to me that the source of signal in Nostr aren't metrics, but rather context. See, my mind doesn't evolve linearly over time, I am constantly seeking lots of side quests and get stray in the middle of books. I recently had the opportunity of reading a book and seeing a website where I could answer ALL my doubts at the same time. That made me learn the book faster
What stops nostr from doing something like this to ease the experience and cohesion of users?
🤣🫡I should probably mute her, right?
