OpenSats and other “charities” have been hesitant to provide funding to critical Nostr & Bitcoin infrastructure and tooling.
While they are open arms to low-effort projects and prototypes that never materialize.
I will zap you, if you renote, and reply with a project that has failed to get funding or lost funding:
⚡️250 for very high value projects
⚡️50 for good quality projects
Maybe we can make a registry for direct funding.

📨 nostr.land relay
all opinions are my own.
nostr gives you choice
clients should not misinform you about what choices it gives you
on the nostr.land relay you can use the aggregator to get high performance comparable to a caching server at the cost of some centralization
but you can easily move out to another relay, and your client is controlled by you
go touch some grass and, hmm, beg for zaps
instead of hoping that the grant of someone that has done more than you for nostr gets revoked because you disagree with them

I don’t get Nostr influencooor culture.
All they do is shill:
- the newest trend that got some funding from an organization that doesn’t even fund basic Nostr infrastructure
- some new vibe coded garbage, or “prototype” that gets abandonrd after a month
- some shady company that pays off influencers
