The point of this post was to let people know damus’ current runway, we are not “giving up”, I was simply giving some perspective on how damus’ current funding strategy is not going to be sustainable long term and we will be looking at alternatives. “likely the last year” is just referring to the uncertainty around the business model and funding.

Damus has had amazing support this past year from individual users, opensats, hrf, which has been unimaginably helpful for getting damus to where it is today.

The feedback and ideas on this post have been very helpful, and will be taking everything into consideration for 2024 🫂

Thanks for putting up with my dramatic notes 😆 nostr:note1l2s7wyqg5xz7ke6t20p03t9awk629utr6wxjjmg7k4cqr0eflrdql5p5ke

One thing I have been doing after NostrAsia is to learn from people in non-internet industries such as filmmaking, fashion and more. Nostr developers are pretty much all from software industry. The problem is that software industry by itself is basically controlled by big platforms and they have absolutely no incentives to adopt the decentralized model. It’s very hard to win in their home court. Therefore, it’s very hard to migrate/onboard new users from these platforms.

However, other traditional industries don’t care about your technology solutions, it’s a better battle field for decentralization to win.

This is just my hypothesis and maybe decentralization can win there. I will use 2024 to verify.
