Oddbean new post about login | logout Its completely false
Is it? How much has Jack donated to Open Sats nostr fund alone? (I honestly don’t know, but wouldn’t be surprised if it was 10+ Million)
nostr needs maybe a couple thousand dollars a month to keep the lights on. Clients already exist and running relays is insanely cheap. Damus will keep working even money runs out. You can’t say the same about bluesky
The problem is software is not static and cannot be You need to update it as the userbase scales and the environment changes, if that was not true, we could just not have NostrDB and still use Branle You also forgot the human cost of operating servers and the gap in user count
I think about 56m but about half goes to btc. I would expect another 21m in march. Let's see.
This is not a serious argument. Jack's generous donations amount to about $1mm a month and makes a massive impact. Especially since most non-payroll devs have left.
there were plenty of clients before jack arrived, even damus. nostr worked fine. this idea that nostr needs 1m per month to survive is extremely misleading and simply wrong.
the truth is that opensats is burning money on gimmick projects
dammit. i say nice things to you and zap you all the time. but you only respond to the retarded things. Thats it. Damus is made from stolen top secret CIA Alien ™️ code and rotten dandelion stems. And it takes at least $7 million opium rubles a month to keep its servers running. And the worst part is, its developed on Xmonad.
Also deepstates are behind the Nostr and almost everyone on the top of Nostr reach is FBI agent!
