I am the absolute worst #value4value target audience. I am a ridiculously cheap bastard and really hate to spend money. Like ever. I have never paid for subscriptions, I won’t pay for Netflix, or twitter. No cable TV. Won’t pay for Spotify. I torrent music and films and use pirated software instead of paying. But I have zapped more sats on nostr:npub1yfg0d955c2jrj2080ew7pa4xrtj7x7s7umt28wh0zurwmxgpyj9shwv6vg & nostr:npub1v5ufyh4lkeslgxxcclg8f0hzazhaw7rsrhvfquxzm2fk64c72hps45n0v5 than I would ever have spent on corporate media. I have zapped the #nostr client devs and Bitcoin devs more than I ever gave to fucking Adobe in 12 years working as a professional photographer. I gladly donate to nostr:npub1xnf02f60r9v0e5kty33a404dm79zr7z2eepyrk5gsq3m7pwvsz2sazlpr5 more than I’d would ever have let my old fiat bank claw from my grubby fingers in bank fees. I pay for relays, I zap plebs when they make me laugh, or think… or when they post particularly cute cat pictures. I’m willing to pay more for quality wares sold for #bitcoin. I love the #circulareconomy and I’m not gonna stop. nostr:note1ngt0nklejazs3sgamfsyrld8rc6ecm7089q80se5r4ljp6veztuqw8kn7r

Same! I keep surprising the stingy bastard in me, every day.
Isn’t it amazing! 😻 💪
Definitely! 💯 I think I’d include that in my idea of what #value4value really is. Rather than pirating I can now support directly the people who produce the goods, services, and software that I use in my daily life. This is the 180° turnaround that #v4v and open source enables.
Yeah I have always been torn! But now I am glad to have a viable alternative and a way to support them directly 🤙

Thats because what we are doing is bigger than all of us.
