 A Saturday morning confession.
I am not in sales. I actually really despise the traditional salesman techniques.
I don’t like to ‘shill’ products, I’ve always believed if the product is awesome, people will hear about it and it will sell itself.
I’ve been feeling like a shiller of nostr.build accounts for a while now, and this was never my intention on nostr. I always just wanted to shitpost and help grow the nostr community.
With that said, media is very expensive to host and manage, and nostr.build now hosts ~80%+ of nostr medi (1.5mil files /1.1TB and growing). The best way I can continue to help support nostr is to keep nostr.build strong. To do this I have to shill accounts since it is our only income..
We do have some killer features that I’m really excited about, so that makes it easier.
Please know, I just want to be a normal nostr and Bitcoin psychopath 💜
