I also liked this message in the vida.live chat from @TheWildHustle:
A lot of people on nostr are asking for an easy way to create communities, user generated subs seem pretty game changing IMO. I'd create a community and wouldnt mind paying SN a monthly fee for it. Seems like a better version of blogstack.io habla.news etc.
I wasn't aware of this problem on nostr, so thanks for that! I just know that NIP-72 exists. Is it not working well or just not implemented well enough yet?
I've only seen them in nostrudel, and they leave alot to be desired.
SN could make a sub called "Community Subs"
In Community Subs would be a list of user generated subs like
"Darthcoin Citadel Temple" "Thriller SOF" "3d Printing for the plebs"
with functionality for the Community leader/leaders to moderate content pay sats to post paid subscribers
It would be wild to create an NPUB for the sub, and crosspost alot of the content to nostr, like some sort of blog with community driven posts.

If we want to have new community owners bringing across their user base to Nostr, I also hope we see private communities. That will help us eat into the substack model, without the flaws of centralisation.
I know a lot of people dislike gated content, but it allows you to filter out a lot of the spam/ low-quality contributions & content.
Again, creators would pay a tidy fee for that privilege, and continue to monetise their communities.
