Seriously? Spending $400/year on #storage to avoid being 'the product' isn’t the revolutionary flex you think it is. For most people, free social media isn’t a choice—it’s a either that or none. Nostr’s idealism is admirable, but romanticizing what's essentially a #paywall as 'liberation' reeks of privilege. And this is a protocol that's had a boatload of money dumped into it. #Decentralization won’t succeed by catering to the few who can afford it. Until it’s accessible—and I mean same feature set, not "hey I have npub"—to everyone, this isn’t progress. It’s just another exclusive club. Tell me you're out of touch without telling me you're out of touch.
