Surprise, surprise! Itās the same playbook over and over - grow, capture, extract.
It will never stop unless people opt out of walled gardens.

Meanwhile on Nostr you get zapped directly for your work š
But there are no subscriptions yet. There's talk about recurring payments and there might be wallets that support it in some way but I haven't seen such a feature yet. I want my Phoenix or whatever LN wallet to auto-pay a monthly allowance to certain things and it should be requestable. For example paid relays. When I submit my note to a paid relay when my subscription has a pending payment, the relay should be able to ping my wallet and my wallet should have a toggle to allow up to $X or Y BTC per time unit. The wallet would allow me to "end the subscription" trivially and benign actors could only charge if the subscription was used instead of strictly once per month but the scheme could be used for so many things. My wallet could have different auto-pay limits for zaps per day on client X, streaming per hour, auto-push per week to podcaster Y, ...
This sounds like a perfect blueprint for a new Nostr client š Fountain has a business blueprint that could serve as inspiration for this
Lets go! Humans tired of this playbook could now switch to nostr:nprofile1qqsq73uu0hlhhdfa4efl8wej45gsnmdmq7a9v27a295qgjelgdjw0dgppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp02d5u77, but they like their walled gardens š„“
So yes, if you build on top of someone elseās propery you will indeed have no say
Apologies if this is a dumb question, but is there an option for me to do long form via Nostr?
Iām preparing to go full agro with lengthy diatribes about China and the global Novus Ordo Seclorum shift and was thinking of SS but would way rather do so via Nostr
Dumb questions don't exist!
Try nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q https://yakihonne.com/
Or if you're a power user, using external tools to formated you (Markdown formatted) long-form content:
https://nostrapps.com/obsidian-nostr-writer
and (which I'm maintaining) https://www.drupal.org/project/nostr_content_nip23 but that's a complex way which is far from polished and a out-of-the-box ready solution
