Nostr Web Client

Only if all users have to pay. If you charge power users (more than x posts a day, huge social graph, many images) you can fund the infrastructure and keep the platform free for plebs. This model would support infuencers who want to build a social business without shoving advertising down everyone's throat.

users with a larger social graph are more valuable, you should be paying them not the reverse

elon could have used his 100million followers to start a new platform, instead his 44billion will get eaten by #nostr , #activitypub, #holepunch #keet and similar

I dunno I think it could work.

I just don't like the incentives it sets up. namely, power users are more important to nostr infrastructure providers than plebs.

he is asking people to pay the cost of netflix for the privilige of having a stupid badge while being the content providers for his service, just think about that for a moment, while also being forced into his vision of how it should run and what will be censored

personally hate the idea of it being invite-only

I agree with your point about spammers using asics. though I do think this will only be a profitable attack once nostr has sizable user base, even then its not a low cost spam attack

still thing pow is worth trying, at least for now

distributed moderation will handle spam well because you can expand the moderation effort over many users
