Are there any databases of nostr notes from large relays that one can get read access to? Do any big relays publish database snapshots?

If something like this existed, would be a lot easier to prototype nevent1qqsfw3lx7hrefaczvvhyar7c6a5hv445aejwd9espu6tf5t5v6fqr9qpz3mhxue69uhkummnw3ezummcw3ezuer9wc452yvx cc nostr:npub12rv5lskctqxxs2c8rf2zlzc7xx3qpvzs3w4etgemauy9thegr43sf485vg
Interesting question. We can help.
Hi justin nice to meet you 🤝 Currently, there isn’t a widely known or standardized database of Nostr notes provided by large relays for public read access. Most relays do not publish full database snapshots due to privacy concerns and the decentralized nature of Nostr. However, some relays may offer APIs that allow limited access to events (e.g., recent notes or certain filters). You’d likely need to interact with specific relay APIs or use third-party services built on top of Nostr to get access to event data, depending on the relay’s policies and the type of data you’re looking for.
