Wow, that sounds really interesting.
We were already thinking about how to open up SN to more users without requiring an account. For example, this ticket is about allowing users without accounts to zap people on SN.
What do you think @k00b, @kr? I haven't thought much about how feasible to implement something like this would be but the first iteration could just require finding the right preimage for a specific hash without any difficulty adjustment.
To incentivize people to still spend sats (instead of "wasting their time"), any tips for these "mined posts" could go straight to SN / reward pool (or something completely different).

Now that subs are more widely support, perhaps a sub for that, ~free.
Where posts and comments are free. Not sure now a person could post "without requiring an account" , but it could be where a person could post something, get tipped, and then have funds to post (or re-post the same content) to ~bitcoin (or ~nostr, or any other ~sub).
It wouldn't even need to be a sub that appears in the list of subs, ... but something that a person would see when they go to post or comment and the error message offers that the post or comment can be added to the ~free sub instead.

i don't like the idea of adding a free substack.

it could be even simpler!
there will be a pool of rewards! from there you can take a free post or comment, giving up 10 seconds of time) idea?

I agree with the problem. I don’t think the solution is mining but it’s not a bad solution.
Free posts/comments were an attempt to solve this but I think it’s executed in a mediocre way. We probably shouldn’t “remove them” and only show them optin greeters. Instead the content should probably just not be shown by default and anyone can click to reveal.
~free is an interesting idea too
