Nice, thanks! One thing I wanted to test was the nice green $ icon in Damus’s relay page… would be awesome if it was not-green for paid relays that hadn’t been paid yet. Looks like NIP-11 is the spec governing that relay info doc, but not sure if user payment status is discoverable like that… do you know?

I think the green $ icon is just an indicator of paid relay. And I agree it should be for the ones you’ve paid for. And for other paid relays it should be greyed. #[3]

Agree.

Here is the Damus user story for display paid relay status: https://github.com/damus-io/damus/issues/509

Well from looking at NIP-11 idk if a given user’s “paid” status is even discoverable by the client. Seems like rn it’s kinda honor code “give relay your npub, pay invoice, relay promises to store your events and serve you new events” which is fine, but should relays have a public index of which npubs have paid to make it less trusted?

Oh nice! Do you know anything about this? #[5]

Good question.

I left the story open without implementation detail so devs can decide what is the best solution.

#[5] any idea if there is a solution for this story?

Do you think they work better than the free relays?
