You sell storage space. Yay free tier, but bias much? For most people, free social media isn’t a choice—it’s a either that or none. This dude romanticizing what's essentially a #paywall as 'liberation' is gross. Until it’s accessible—and I mean same feature set, not "hey I have an npub"—to everyone EQUALLY, this isn’t new and different. It’s just another exclusive club.

We support over 3000 free uploads a day, and not only tell people how to use our free service and compress videos for free, we are open source and encourage people to host their own media, use our open source, or other free nostr providers. We have pay-for accounts because people requested it, we don’t believe in ads, and it’s the only way for us to sustain all of the media we host and support nostr.
I really wish this world didn’t run on money, and everyone had as many ‘free’ resources as anybody would ever need, but that isn’t the case..
