Totally get that. I’ve asked myself the same thing more than once. For the first 8 months of The Meme Bay, I was posting 4 memes a day manually spaced out every ~4 hours. Most were handpicked from legacy platforms, just to bring that familiar humor and help make NOSTR feel more alive. We used Shipyard for a while (I suggested some early features), but eventually outgrew it and started building tools in-house to run things more smoothly. I’ve been running giveaways manually for over 2 years, given away more than a million sats, and already put over $6K into the new tooling - with at least $10K committed to get it to a place where it’s stable enough to share publicly. It hasn’t always felt worth it. But I stuck with it because I care about building something real here. That’s why I posted what I did - not to criticize, just to highlight something that feels off and could probably be improved for future users. And if you decide to bring the bot back in a way that adds real value, I’m all for that. We all win if NOSTR wins.
