Have you considered monetized-branded Damus client/relay forks? Imagine your favorite podcaster/internet community forks the client, brands as a community, pops up or contracts a relay to provide redundancy & censorship resistance for their community. They benefit from your continued main branch Damus development with periodic performance updates, opportunity to monetize their community through v4v. You receive developer/maintenance fees for client (and server maintenance). You provide these ervices you provide for free today. Basically you become the Squarespace of communities. Customers benefit from gaining the cloistered censorship resistant sounding rooms their communities desire. The Nostr adds new theme-based user bases on the sly, and your customers should determine what level of global discovery they desire, but eventually users will discover that they can travel their nsecs to other clients and experience the broader nostrverse.
Someone will do this might as well be the person setup to execute on it. Largely you would keep doing the work you are already doing but you have monetized side hustles to keep your stack growing. Nostr benefits, internet community censorship resistance increases (imagine pop up contract relay operators meeting capacity/redundancy needs for these communities to reduce centralization), and most importantly you get paid for what you are already doing.
