I heard that some of the nostr devs are being paid very well..

Since you mentioned the money speech I would say that if you see $ in building something then close source and sell your start up! I will just make an example of Satoshi who saw the problem and fixed it without any expectations to being paid!

I hate autocorrect!

What ya building yegor? And for free? 🤔

I’m criticizing 😉

Dude you need NOSTR. You are so annoying that would be banned from any platform :))

Seems like you don’t get it! Anyone can switch to other clients! There are just people who jumped on nostr when Will was shipping new features and fixing the bugs with enthusiasm that is faded out.. Vanessa, also asked the question I wanted to ignore but let it be! I have been contributing my free time to helping with Chicago BitDevs for years for free and not expecting anything in return and asking for any cent to be paid ! This is just simply what I love to do when I have free time ! Also, I’m not even talking about the pictures and all of the stuff I have contributed and doing it for fun just because I can!

Yeah man it was a lighthearted joke more than anything. But that’s also the point we can be as annoying as we want to be here. To be honest I don’t have time to contribute with anything myself. I just zap and enjoy the ride. 🤷🏻

I assume everyone working on nostr is broke except Jack.🤷🏽‍♂️

My expectation is nostr will be buggy and a passion project for along time 🤙🏽😆

Ok! 👍

Good point. There's a lot of flying around the world, partying in girls bars too it seems. Nice lifestyle if you can get it!

It’s not even about this! My point was if money is what is your interest in then don’t need to complain that “we are working for free” don’t do it! There will be others who will gonna build !

💯

With all due respect you're wrong on many levels.

First of all no, nostr devs aren't paid as much as you think and yes a lot of us are working for free with am expectation of making money later.

Second, "build something close source and sell your startup" is a horrible mindset. There is almost never a reason to build something closed source. Closed source code is a temporary pandemic we're in the midsts of dealing with.

And finally Satoshi didn't work for free. Satoshi has (rightfully) earned several BTC by mining Bitcoin at the start

Read again my message! Will is one of them who gets the most and complaining every time about money! This shit needs to stop! Ok, ok ! If we started taking about open source ! How about changing Damus license ?

Isn't that talking about the License itself, not the code issued under the License?

Go try to fork damus, ikorove it and release to public lol Will tomorrow will sue you 😂

Anyone can sue anyone for anything, but that doesn't mean they'd have a case.

Damus, like many projects, is open source, and allows for use commercially and sale.

If you want to fork it, and call it Petrov's Playground, you could do so.

yes
