xmr.rocks is like 45 cents. They use nerostr. Can code your own in 10 min.
Most users here are linux admins?
No idea. I'm gonna stay on free relays till someone spams the living shit out of them.
Their web page says 103 registrations.
I don't think they have an onion though. Maybe you can spin one up to make it gold standard.
I got two relays running now
People are paying?
Oh no, i would never charge. This is a public service
Symbolic fee to keep spammers out.
Ditto solves that lol
How does it work? One time payment like nerostr?
Adding nostr:npub1tlakh7jnlewsddxklddxknzsfg6tz6pa8s48cyjmyja7qjl4uvyqamsnu0
Ditto dont do the one time payments but as an admin, you can blacklist npubs and have better control over who uses your instance and even censor words or spammer characters
That works too, if you have the patience. Pay to play scales better though.
Oh. I don't think that's enough to fix the problem tbh.
Its a start. Better than the wild west now. Eventually nostr will need to be like Mastodon/Fediverse to survive with mass adoption
I don't think it matters. They just need to take out a shit ton of ads. Jack Dorsey needs to pick a couple clients and pay Elon Musk 6 Gorillian dollars to shill it under every single post.
Have ads for native services like PornHub did with Chaturbate. No need for mass adoption this way.
