Good evening,
As a project that is run by Nostriches for Nostriches, we at #GitCitadel are proud of our humble, zap-based financing, especially over our Geyserfund (https://geyser.fund/project/gitcitadel). It's been mildly painful, and we've had to learn to pinch each sat until it cries for mercy. But it has definitely been the right source of funding for a project in this incubation stage, where we tentatively brood and hatch out our first baby, Project #Alexandria.
HOWEVER,
we regularly receive questions about how we plan on having a more sustainable source of funding, and one of our main ideas, is to cover the costs of our relays with a relay subscription that nostr:npub10npj3gydmv40m70ehemmal6vsdyfl7tewgvz043g54p0x23y0s8qzztl5h is managing for us. The current subscription of 300 sats/month (which some of you have been grandfathered into), will get you write-access to the relay. It is a great help for us, if you actively subscribe to wss://theforest.nostr1.com in your client, and include it in your outboxes and inboxes.
This access will become interesting soon, once the publishing feature is opened up, and even more interesting, once we get comments, highlights etc. going. Alexandria is a community-first client, and theforest is our community relay for the https://next-alexandria.gitcitadel.eu instance, so anything written to that relay will receive pride-of-place in the client. Because we know and trust our own community members, we're displaying "the full global", so this relay is a great way to immediately make contact with other npubs, even if you are new to Nostr.
We are also working on the ability to offer premium relay subscriptions, and we'll announce those, once we get the features going that they will unlock.
Yours truly,
nostr:npub1s3ht77dq4zqnya8vjun5jp3p44pr794ru36d0ltxu65chljw8xjqd975wz
You can read my ideas about #Alexandria on Alexandria. 😁
Alexandria is meant for all types of publications, including books, research papers, essays, historical documents, technical documentation, picture books and children's books, recipe books, school textbooks, Bibles, etc. You can scroll the index cards on there and see examples of the various types. Just as the original Great Library didn't only store novels, but all human wisdom, we also do not only display novels. That would be a Sort-of-large library, rather than a Great one.
That said, you will soon be able to filter and search by type, so if you only want to see novels, that's okay, too.
The Product Owner of the project is nostr:nprofile1qqs8qy3p9qnnhhq847d7wujl5hztcr7pg6rxhmpc63pkphztcmxp3wgpz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qgmwaehxw309a6xsetxdaex2um59ehx7um5wgcjucm0d5hsz9nhwden5te0dehhxarjv4kxjar9wvhx7un89uqaujaz.

GM and happy weekend, fellow Nostriches!
#GitCitadel is looking for an additional frontend developer.
What we offer:
* Large, fun Nostr project team, including 6 other people working actively on the various frontend repos
* Serious, provable resume bling
* High-quality, advanced project work to base a grant application upon
* Challenging, innovative tasks and the chance to influence the feature sets, tool choices, and roadmap

* Energetic, personable Product Owner
What you bring:
* Active, regular engagement
* Willingness to work in an agile, asynchronous, international environment with multiple Kanban boards and git repos
* Volunteer effort, since we currently only make enough money to cover server costs
