Fedi: don't be afraid to ask your users for a dollar so you can eat ramen while you foot the bill for a server farm
Nostr: do you want to upgrade to the virgin or extra-virgin shitposting package?

@georgia good point so far I haven't seen anyone post about being in a wheelchair with 3 diabetic cats and a chihuahua in renal failure and they're going to turn off the lights if they don't get $675 to pay the electric bill but also that includes the cell phone bill because they have to pay using the phone payment system with a prepaid debit card

@feld it's great to have a userbase that doesn't think that making money is immoral

@feld So-called decentralized social media protocols when a centralized media store is needed for anyone to post their shitposts.

@phnt there are free media hosting servers that just expire your media after some days, and you can self-host the media and have it automagically synced to other mirrors -- some that will expire it, some you can pay to keep it there. So imho their ecosystem is far more flexible than ours over on this side of the fence

@feld It is more flexible if you want ephemeral posts and media. But it also brings more friction to new users since they now also have to set up an account on some media hosting platform, link the accounts etc. (and possibly pay), or host their own. That problem gets moved from the user to the administrator of an instance in our case.
It is good that you can self-host your own Nostr media storage, but probably very few do. I think have not seen a Nostr post with media that did not use the nostr.build service. We have a similar problem though, it is called instances behind Cloudflare.

@phnt I think you over-estimate the complexity.
e.g.,
1. Install Primal on iOS
2. Create or import your key
3. That's it, you have access to everything already and don't need to know about it
