What's LNS again?

Totally agree, Nostr just needs to keep building for what the current users want.

But it is also hypocritical to expect devs to work for free, why would anyone work hard and not get paid?
Especially when a profitable corporation uses your free software to make money.

Exactly we are playing against an adversary with unlimited power, with the ability and motivation to change the rules of the game at anytime.
First rule of privacy is we must not play in their court or try to abide by their owen rules.

It just means profit must be found in a different way.

For example maybe issue an anonymous token, team declares all profit go to buying such a token on a decentralised swaper, anyone can buy such a token, profit goes to the public, anyone can create a pseudo new account and purchase such a token.
Profit doesn't go directly to the team.

This is totally an issue, the solutions I can think of are Reputation and Proof of wealth (proof you own some bitcoin).
I think also there is a nip for pow on each post but that won't be that useful will it?

Why not just say scammers then?
