I feel kind of bad for the people who invested in alternative tech right before #Nostr.
Locals, etc.

Rumble
That came to mind, but I didn't mention it since #Nostr hasn't really overtaken that yet as far as I can see, but I think it will over the next several years. Locals, however, offers a use case that has essentially been obliterated by Nostr, in my opinion. I see no point in it now, especially if people can create paid only relays/communities on Nostr.
Agreed 👍. And Locals is an extra platform to manage. Who needs the hassle?
Nostr can also easily replace Patreon and BuyMeACoffee
Easily. BMAC had it's place and I appreciate it I guess, but time to move forward. Although, they could become zap friendly and stick around I think.
Am sure there is a way to auto-charge people like Patreon and BMAC do
Excellent observation! Locals is redundant now. #Nostr can easily replace Patreon and BuyMeACoffee as well
And, Rumble in a few years
This is the space to watch and be in!
They can change out their tech stack to Nostr and fiddle with their business models.
Sure, if they're smart. Unfortunately, I think many will just dumbly fade away without realizing what happened.
