is the nostr:npub1ve8qwrlztemdmnh62jffcr0y9m9dpqgqjdg8ufx7gc3qw5wdk74qyv9ka6 worth paying for? i'm wary of things that don't let me taste the value before pushing for a membership... they should at least have a 'free for a few days ' feature or something, so I can get a sense of what value it actually brings before parting with my hard-earned sats.

Free trials attract the wrong kind of members: spammers, scammers, bots, shipcoiners etc etc. however the monthly membership is only $3 and can be cancelled anytime. The idea that everything should be free is a fiat disease that will push us to “you’ll own nothing and be happy”. We will not participate in that.
fair play, i'm not saying it should forever be free, just that i'm unlikely to pay for something without having seen what it does and why it would be valuable to me... if you can find a way to demo that more clearly, i'd be more open to paying 😃
I think the other issue is that since it’s basically a list of bitcoiners near you, you could just contact everyone nearby in the trial period and exchange numbers and then you wouldn’t gain much extra by continuing the subscription
Free trials don’t make any sense for a networked product.
