I’ve been wanting to create a video on TikTok explaining how to use it. When I get to finding relays, I struggle to explain them in a way that they’ll maintain interest / not technical. I don’t want to have to explain what they are, but it’s an important part.

Right I think the relay management might be the least sexy and also most critical element of nostr (it's in the name)

I just saw this idea in another reply:

I like that. I think another solution might be relay / client integration. Maybe there’s multiple options in the onboarding: recommend free relays, and recommended paid relays (some relay / client agreement for split pay upon end user sign up). That way they don’t have to go to each website and signup individually. Maybe there’s work to be done on the relay side to make it easy to integrate payment / signup on the client side.

I would love that. Going to the paid relay sites and copying pasting invoives is painful.

Surely we'll laugh about all of that in a few years. It'll get integrated eventually.

Too complicated. It is what it is: people don’t have the patience for that.

Don’t know if this would require a new NIP. I would pay you a % of what I charge. I think easy integration would reduce the resistance substantially.
