What I replied to the post:
"Here are a few things that come to mind that may help!
Getting sustainable/consistent income:
- Have a dialogue that pops up once after installation, that allows users to opt-in to zap-splits, so that every time someone zaps a post, Damus gets a %
- A "Damus+"/"Damus Pro" etc paid subscription tier with extra features
- Turn amazon/walmart/etc links in posts into referral links, and have that be opt-in of course.
As for lowering expenses, it would be totally reasonable to turn the Damus relay into a PurplePages style contact-list relay meant only to bootstrap gossip discovery of other users relays. There can be a second full fledged Damus relay that subscribers to Damus+ get access to. As it is, the Damus relay shoulders way too much of the load."
