So, maybe free relays should only keep your last 50 posts?
That's an idea. But something tells me that we would need a better UI for interacting with the relays. Either in each client, or a new relay market focused client. It must be easy enough for normies to understand. UX is prime for non tech nerds
It would be nice to have an in-client resource for picking relays. Even opening a relay list in an in-app browser with a way to import relays to client settings. And better relay descriptors so users can make informed decisions about which relays to pick without having to know someone who can recommend relay(s).
All good ideas. Ideally some clients improve on this and we'll get som website specialized in this, that can be visited by people from clients without this feature.
Something like that makes sense to me. Nostr needs some form of monetization but I don't know how you make it work. I could see people having a bunch of free relays and then maybe one or two paids, but over time I would think we would all centralize around the biggest one or two paid relays just to be seen. If I'm going to be paying the equivalent of $6 USD a month, I'm going to pick the fastest horse sort of deal. I don't know how you fix that.
