The divide between on-mission and for-profit is an age-old schism. It's especially pronounced in tech. Nostr is no exception.
My contention is that you can be on-mission while being for-profit, but you're going to have to make hard trade-offs. Ultimately, you need to choose.
If you pick purity over profit, great. Godspeed. If you choose profit at the cost of purity, also great. Good hunting.
Firing shots from one camp at the other accomplishes nothing of benefit to either. You picked your lane. Run your race.

Sovereignty without sacrifice
Freedom tech loses when it demands sacrifice. Winning means building products that are better on every dimension—not just principles.
