Btw, I will NOT pay money to use any client to use Nostr. Screw that! Good luck finding source of funding!

Then you will get ads
Been saying this since about a month after I joined Nostr. People will only have themselves to blame. Not the client devs.
Ads SUCK!
There’s probably a difference business model you can use to fund Damus if can’t get funding from a wealthy benefactor or source.
Just need to think about it more!
Free money is a band-aid fix. It's not sustainable.
What about independent value?
Money is transaction of value, and u less creating the value, a rat in the wheels.
Don’t be a the rat, be the wheel.
Then whether an embarrassment or incompetence to be in a boiling economy and bitching about funding, beyond me. What’s the matter? Can’t close enough business to fund the development when boiling? Get better closers.
Even better, license to create foundational value to make the closers life easier.
Fucking embarrassing to see moaning about money when running a bullish boiler
Requires a license to keep tight, as thieving is embarrassing to be boiling with.
Fucking amateur hour, eddie 
If anything, ensuring originality or proper rights to the revolution of ideas is how not be caught stealing when boiling.
Nothing wrong with bullish boiler when able to deliver as an efficient vehicle to raise money. It’s the thieving that gets bars.
License to operate. 
Yes, I agree.
Just pay to opt out of ads? 🤷♂️
Meant to type different business model.
Some people don't understand value for value and it shows. These groups of individuals will use ad supported clients in the future. I don't blame them. It's all they've known over the past two decades. It's hard to get out of that mindset. We must work hard to find and push better funding models.
The rat race chasing funding without creating independent value to buy bitcoin is outdated, but you don’t hear me though. 
It’s amazing how willing people are to give up all their leverage and stake in something.
Our data is so incredibly important. Maybe we need to work on explaining why that's the case?
I have an idea for an article explaining leverage and stake holding. Perhaps you could expand on this and I could incorporate it?
What angle are you thinking about the data from? Perhaps we could collaborate a bit to get something useful and helpful written.
Sure. I was thinking along the lines of how data is weaponized for political gains and monetized.
Memes would help. Seriously.
Enlist the meme makers to make a campaign of why v4v is important... And post the campaign here but also on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook... To try to enlighten the masses.
Everyone is different, why wouldn’t you? Does that include not doing zap splits?
Coming in HOT , love the honesty .
Thanks! Sometimes, I’m a little too blunt but can adjust depending on who I’m talking to or my mood.
People have become so comfortable with being the product... 😔
