This is a good point. But the vast majority of that comes from one very generous person who i think have given 57 million, about half of which goes to nostr. Not sure that can last forever.
If you remove that. Very little goes to content creators. Tips are typically 21sats which is about 2cents. Would you give someone on the street 2 cents?
There may be a handful of generous bitcoin whales but very little trickles down. And in the case of the relay network, nothing went to them of that generous donations. Much is still unaccounted for.
If the money was fairly allocated it would be a different story. But how to do that?
