Nostr Web Client

We’ve been thinking about the best sustainable subscription model for filter.nostr.wine (and our other upcoming features + additional relays) while still keeping nostr.wine accessible with only a one-time payment.

Haven’t built anything yet, but here’s what we came up with:

- Same one-time admission fee for nostr.wine (18888) sats gets you write access to nostr.wine and 1 month of access to filter.nostr.wine (+ others)

- After the first month included, filter.nostr.wine will require an ongoing monthly fee (amount tbd). You will receive a DM with a link to add time to your account in advance of its expiration.

- On the website you will be able to choose the amount you want to pay (minimum 1 month fee). We will automatically convert this amount in to days of access.

- Purchases over 6 months will automatically have their time doubled (1 year+ is 50% off). Perhaps a lesser discount for 3+ months?

We are looking for feedback from the 🍷 squad. What do you think of this concept and what would you change?

I like this idea, especially subscription model only for filter.nostr.wine extra service. I think this is mainly due to high server activity to aggregate from public relay for every unique public key member, right?

if i am paying, i also expect spam free and ad free or is that too much to ask?

Yes, we won't likely see any spam by using paid relays as long as we enable them for reading nostr data and limit the data coming from free public relay.

Paid relays act like a wall that prevent spam from Bot coming. Basically, any paid relays will prevent the spam coming to those relay because spam actor won't likely spend money to spread their spam. Their main targets are free public relay which don't have any spam filter mechanism.

Exactly. Nostr.wine is considerably easier to run and maintain.
