I have never asked for a donation but here it goes:

I host 4 relays now completely for free, they will always be free, on top of doing thousands of hours of open source work. I've never received a grant, I'm running purely on passion and principles here.

If you are enjoying my relays (WoT, Haven, Algo) - please consider making a donation to help cover the costs of my servers and bandwidth - the costs really add up 🫂🙏

Thank you for everything you do here.

How does one connect to your relays? One GitHub link in your profile doesn’t list anything in the wss: format that I could find, and the other has so many without the first one working.

Thx bro 🤙


This is one fuckin' dollar!


Why not go the nostr.wine route and require payment? You'll be helping the market with price discovery and enable your operation to scale. It's an essential step for Nostr to mature. If I were you I'd start at what seems high since there's little competition. Say 33k ($30) a month.


Bzzzp 🤜🏻⚡🤛🏽


Very grateful for everything you do brother

thanks


As soon as you start charging, people have expectations around uptime and whatnot


Great post!


Then maybe just a one time fee not sure how many users you are having on your relay but 10000 sats a user nostr wine also does it similar way

can you whitelist my npub key please? 🤓


That's a good thing because it helps us get to the truth of the matter. We should not gaslight ourselves thinking we have a reliable system when it requires not only passion but charity. v4v is an aesthetic but reality operates on mass (users) and energy (money).

Thank you for your FOSS sensibilities!

How to ask for money is the hallmark of a great entrepreneur.

Respect your great work. 🫡

Have you applied for funding in OpenSats?


Several times 🙏🫂


Have you thought about applying for a grant at nostr:npub10pensatlcfwktnvjjw2dtem38n6rvw8g6fv73h84cuacxn4c28eqyfn34f?

Thanks for this!


Hopefully you're not rejected for the same reason as Freerse. The #[4]  board wanted a nice green GitHub stat sheet. We'd been building the product locally for the previous year and a half. They don't care if your product is used and if Nostr's users like it.


The secret is a nice green GitHub spreadsheet.

The board of directors of #[4]  determines your proof of work based on this scrap of paper, not on user love and the code you have built.


I respect their decisions and appreciate them 🫂🙏
