"how does a cheap/basically free relay raise money..."
Free relays becoming excessively (expensively) large is counter-productive to the future of the protocol. Nostr's first strength is decentralization.
Free stuff tends to bad incentives and thus bad outcomes. Like incumbent centralized social media.
That said, there's a need for some free relays: allow people to play with the ecosystem, before they get serious and put some $ into what they value.
What does a sustainable middle ground look like, that works for both users AND relay operators? Very simple...
Read for free. Publish+store for a nominal cost. But provide something equivalent to a free trial.
Let the market take care of a) pricing and b) punishing relays that get stupid with ads and other weirdness.

Not your keys, not your coins.
Not your relays, not your notes.
