the artists i know don't like paying for anything
Unfortunately, artists also need to do their part for a social media engagement point of view. Consistent art releases (what ever is reasonable). Engaging with user, doing live streams, etc.
The effort goes in first, then the users will reward them I think.
Out of anyone who actually produces content on nostr, you might be the only consistent one.
There is also a trend of valuing developers work more at this time of nostrβs life. Not sure how long this will last.
Consistency is key π―
And itβs hard.
I think that this is what most people don't understand or see the correlation.
I've been told this whole time artists are cheap and want everything for free.

It's true for me too though.
Lol. Who doesnβt like free things? But whether your vocation is artist or anything else, we all realize that paying for certain things makes us more efficient and effective at what weβre doing. βFly by nightβ wannabes might want to freeload off everyone, but those who are serious about making a business out of their art will be willing to pay for things that help them toward that end.

This is why social platforms pay creators so much in the first place. Elon recently posted that X is going to start to pay creators more than YouTube. Wild. They all know it drives users to the platforms. The difference is theyβre doing it to sell advertising, and Nostr isnβt an ad-based network. Nostr has different incentives, but that doesnβt mean having active artists/creators wonβt drive user growth here too.
Definitely feels that way sometimes. It is work, and that is what differentiates the fly by night tourists and even the occasional hobbyists from professionals, in any field/endeavor.
I think that diVine is going to flip the script on a lot of this, meaning bringing some of the legacy creative process to Nostr.
It has ads?
No, at least not now, but creators that will join will want paid eventually. Creative thinking will have to come with that.
@npub19ha7...q0fa and I were told several times that artists cant even afford a website to host their shit so...
I've been saying that for three years here, dammit.
I think so too. I hope so. It seems like the kind of thing with potential to, at least. Iβm tired of going around with the same debates and same pathetic arguments people give when this topic comes up. I think results will be the only thing that convinces people.
Maybe if we say it one more time π€π€£

I've also been told musicians are tech-tarded but it's just not true π
