blossom imo as a protocol is garbage, as it tries to consolidate management (upload/delete/list) with retrieval of blobs
it is a big pain in the ass for scaling, look at any service and you will see cdn domains are separate from upload
blossom also makes no attempt to allow media optimization, and I believe it is an acceptable tradeoff to sacrifice integrity for reduced data usage if you can turn it off as needed
blobs should be identified by nostr event IDs, meaning you get metadata for free, and if a user wants their blob gone, they can issue a delete event and send it to all hosts
rehosting content becomes an explicit action
Well, after Alexandria Gutenberg we're going to work on Aedile SDK for a bit, and we can maybe think up a scheme for Blossom 2.0, while the guys fiddle with C++..

the use of nostr as a flexible mechanism of reference is the elephant in the room
