there is no relation between "RELAY LIST" and "DATA RETENTION" - relay can ONLINE may have cleanup remove data DB file once a year. nostr relays are TX/RX NOT for ARCHIVE - that u need ur private/public relay whoever post there DB grows - user backup n retain themselves

That's is exactly my thoughts. So you can lose data if you do not run your own private relay...

yes - example this npub 1yr data of 2000notes+8000replies =<10MB - u will see missing links of notes that r NOT in ur private relay IF TURNOFF internet open it locally to read

Why ill keep hosting my own relay. Gotta make sure all my dumb posts are here forever
