ya and the paid relays don't get nuked because it's mostly only real users on it which is exactly my point.

Damus has an interest in providing a working relay for its new users that start using the app no? It makes sense for it to not have barriers such as payments. Frankly it also just needs to provide that service for about a week or so, such that users can get up to speed and find relay footing elsewhere. The fact it is months today is just lucky because we are early. Atleast thats how i see it, but i have nothing to do with damus🤷‍♂️
