for most of us being here is a net loss financially and in terms of time that could be spent doing something else. people earning big or just earning are a minority, do people think we're all sponsored or something?

Not glorifying the "broken dev on Nostr donating to other broken devs on Nostr" movement. We're quickly heading down a "soon we’re all going to starve" spiral. Circular economy my arse… 🤣
But if it helps, I’m also spending sats and money I don’t necessarily, well… """have"""" at the moment to support Nostr initiatives I believe in. I can’t ask people to do something I’m not willing to do myself (although please don't do what I do. This is not good or even sane financial advice 🤣).
And what do I get out of it? Mostly having my relays pwned by script kiddies on a semi-regular basis, lol.
Funny how the same folks willing to put so much effort into bots and attacks aren’t willing to just open a PR and patch something.
PRs are hard. 😂
I just did an external PR and he was really nice about it, but it felt a bit like a job interview.
I already have to face internal PRs every day. 🙈
Yes, they think that. There is so much hype around the grant programs, and such big-sounding numbers being thrown around, that users think we're all getting lambos. 😂
