That’s how it is currently because of the smaller scale. Paid subscription relays will be able to scale without ads, but if we want nostr to be used at a scale like Twitter, the majority of casual users have absolutely zero interest in paying a subscription for social media, and so ads will be needed to sustain most unpaid relays.
