Ha! Can’t argue with that… good thing I won’t ever be a relay operator. I’m gek, was away from Nostr for a long while. As usual when I pop back in I wonder… how can this be sustainable and attract content creators. That’s it.

The game was simply: how to fix R&D funding, reward content creators and have operators earn, then imagine at what network size and relay size it becomes a reasonable full time endeavor. A Nostr journey should start with choosing your relay(s)… relays and blossoms are the infrastructure. So, realistically that’s where ongoing costs are endured but also where monetization makes the most sense. These operators need the ecosystem to have a product, it makes sense funding them.
