🐶🐾🤣 makes sense. Beyond choking the free offering to the point of unusable, it is yet impossible for one person to implement all good features. And adding more will inflate costs further, making lower paying tiers and impossibility.

Maybe it should be unusable. Maybe the idea of free media uploads to nostr is a pipe dream that feeds an insatiable beast.
Media is the fuel for the social network fire. Maybe if each media upload had a small zap requirement, then there would be a sustainable market.
Or maybe the only way such a service survives is with an angel investor type paying all the bills. Because maybe nostr dies without such a service…
why not have the clients pay monthly for using nostr.build services on their client?
Because I doubt Damus can afford to pay for that either, considering it’s mostly free too.
I kind of agree with you on that point. The problem is that paying with BTC sucks for normal people. It is hard to get, and hard to spend without jumping through hoops.
I do think having a usable free offer is important for nostr now, otherwise a lot of people would not be here. 🐶🐾🫡
Should integrate the strike API so that people can pay with fiat and let strike do the conversions to sats for the service.
Primal is funded by VC and has full time working staff. They have strike integration, and it works. 🐶🐾🫡
Strike integration doesn’t need the full time staff, pretty sure their documentation is pretty readily available and open and their team is willing to help out other developers.
That’s a great option for a client. I will take a look at their integration later, when I have time. 🐶🐾🫡
