I know nothing lol. I appreciate there has to be a solution. Maybe nostr just has to further become a silo? Seems a huge shame if so.

Do paid relays stop this, I mean even the ones with like 21sat fee or something small? Invite codes to relays?
I'm just throwing out silly ideas as a non-techy lol
If say a small fee relay was effective against spam you could could have some sort of weird system of donating the fee to a zero sats noob.
I don't know🥲
Nostr invite codes? Is that a silly idea?
You could have receiver pays fees for people who already have sats. Or sender paid fee for people without sats. With a very small fee. (What is even a small fee that is also a spam deterrent?)
How silly is this idea? Possibly incredibly silly and impractical #asknostr
Yeah, invite code to paid relay would be one simple solution to newbie-friendly spam prevention. This is not limiting anyone's freedom: users can always choose what clients and relays they use. What works best will be most popular.
