I am not sure. These rev-share models lead to bad incentives. Clients should not put themselves between creators and their audience. I prefer that people pay for the client directly.
Kinda wish nostr:npub1gcxzte5zlkncx26j68ez60fzkvtkm9e0vrwdcvsjakxf9mu9qewqlfnj5z would add something similar 😉😂

That's a respectable decision. I'll continue as I do.
Google search became useless after a few decades because monetary incentives took over the purpose of serving users what they were looking for.
You only have one customer: the one that pays your bills. The end user is not your customer if they are not aligned with your revenue model.
Here’s an example (note that for reasons unknown Wired took down the article later):
nostr:note1vyggvv4tmhhhca7qj788rapsca7vs7unsa7m845gw4tjl4pzc7zsce0673
does it hurt anything if it's optional though?
If it works (revenue comes in), it does. Devs get lazy and stop collecting real feedback about new improvements because money comes in no matter what they do.
Indeed. Can be also not because of the app but because Nostr becomes popular so ”a rising tide lifts all boats.”
Mozilla has a nice revenue automate.
