You are relating two completely different things here. Grants are for dev work on the nostr ecosystem.
Anyone can run a relay.
On nostr, you see cool devs like jb55 offer a relay for his app Damus as well as get grants for his app.
I run a spam-free public relay and offer lightning wallets for free. How bout dat?
That's awesome that you provide that.
Yes anyone can run a relay (we do in my home as well). But that is very different from operating a dating app. Even if it uses Nostr. I say this as someone building nostr:npub17vscfmnmshfdw68llhduxtr4h0kkmyhzm4phzs40t3gqsmguz7lsak66ne and everything is somehow still costing money.
Oy vay..........why is this so hard to reach you lol
Depending on how you do it , paying the dev can be your only cost . You can even offload the media upload cost to third-party servics
Yes but that is still a cost. 😅 I'm not sure how these few expenses we're in agreement on don't count as costs.
Also, look at Amethyst,provides nothing but an app. Vitor's only costs is his time
That project is supported by opensats. https://opensats.org/projects/amethyst
