It's so weird how Nostr has this libertardian vibe, but no free market forces and everyone is just chill wit dat. 🤙

Like a hippy commune.

I'm not. I kissy can't do anything about it since I don't dev software.

That's because no one is really making money yet.

Hard to have market forces without a market.

People are actually making money, but through grants, not from customers.

Bootstraping takes time, and a lot of up front capital

Bootstrapping phase is over.

let's hope

Always found it pretty left-libertarian, so yes.

hey! nobody is paying you to think. stack sats, stay humble pleb.

Nobody is paying me to do anything. 😂

one more outburst from you and to the gulag you go 😉

might fuck around and setup a free relay.

You do that. 😂

god forbid you are trying to make money. better couch your agenda in altruism fast. smdh 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

meanwhile the rich get richer, make it make sats 🤷🏾‍♂️

*GOD

A hippy commune with a lot of bitcoiners 🤙🏾

Bitcoin free shit army LOL

lmao I’m a capitalist 🫡™

I get what you’re saying though

It’s ironic actually when you think about it. And pretty funny

Really funny is watching whole-coiners bitch about someone charging 1000 sats for a service they use multliple times per day.

It's like... dude. Then don't use it.

Damus now has a subscription service, Damus Purple.

Yes, this is a good model.

I'm going to write an article about sat pricing models because I think this is new economic territory and deserves a real discussion.

Very interesting questions arise. Like should the subscription pricing fluctuate with the price for example

Yes, just wrote about it.

Yes Damus purple, nostr.build, paid relays, etc…

What ever happened to: “if something is free than you are the product”. I thought that’s why legacy social media is terrible. With the ads and selling the data

Now we have a great alternative, but somehow many don’t feel like paying 🤷🏾‍♂️

Because they are used to not-paying. They prefer being the product and don't even ask "Precisely what product am I for whom?"

Freedom ain’t free 🤷🏾‍♂️

I’ve seen the (terrible) take that devs should somehow pay for it since they probably have lots of bitcoin. Ok comrade 🤡🤡

* shakes head sadly in capitalist *

Keep Nostr weird

It's an atmosphere like the projects.

People be like, Wen I get my Jackphone?
