 Lol it’s true. That was actually how Tweetoshi (the Plebstr team’s old Twitter client) worked. They showed ads in the feed users were paid sats for spending time on the app. 
 Genius 🐶🐾🤣🤣🤣 
 why not have ads on the media clips uploaded into Damus

zap split the ad revenue between hosting service and the client that it got uploaded with 
 Doesn’t solve the problem of client capture by advertisers? 
 Easy to do but the turnoff is huge for me. I’d pay not to waste time on that crap 🐶🐾🫡 
 I’d be gone 
 Yeah, I am with you. Let them have an ad placement in the video, that works better anyway. Even a fucking fake reviews are better than a stupid ad 🐶🐾🫠🫠🫠 
 Or I guess I’d be paying not to see it. Then I’d be doing a cost benefit analysis of using that client. 
 people will not pay until there's a reason to pay

people will always rather pay to run away from ads, instead of paying to run towards better features

YouTube Premium and Spotify Premium mostly run on that model 
 I’m not sure how the reason I am here can co exist with an advertising model. 
 have it on the free version of the app?

maybe i could allocate a percentage of sats received to them with an upper cap of sats count 
 We have not seen overt ads on Nostr yet. It will be interesting the reaction when it happens, wherever it happens. 
 It will. 
 Let’s try posting ads now! You know, just download it and see what people think 🐶🐾🤣🤣🤣
(Goes to find some ads for download) 
 nostr.build ads as video clips with referral links 
 Let’s fucking go! 🐶🐾🤣🤣🤣 
 But ad is just a meme 😂😂 
 😂

i need #memevertisements 
 That is actually a great model. If users got even a small cut of what that the ads were paying the client and relays for hosting it would feel better as a user. It would also give a balance to zap with without having to get out a credit card and buy sats with. Most of the payout would get spent in the nostr ecosystem.
