I agree with 1 but ppl already use free services (twitter) and willingly sacrifice their personal info and tolerate spam. 2 is charity. I support the programmers works but there is no real incentive for users to pay for relay services.

In Bitcoin node operators pay miners when they want to transact. They pay for access and security. They also help enforce consensus rules. This give btc value. Maybe relay operators should make it so you have to pay to post? Like 1 sat at first but maybe a market would develop for highly available relays? Or maybe you could stratify the network? Free later at the bottom and paid layers on top? To see top content you would have to pay? 

 That being said….just paid invoice sir! Thank you for your service!
