This is the way !
Running too many node in cloud and clearnet doesnot make it DECENTRALIZED - authority Gulag Amajamm Motosoft Allbaba can shutthem down anytime
i run #start9 because i can run it on VM's AND almost every x86 machine
How do we solve the storage issue?
haha good Q
1. sqlite3.nostr DB i have no answer yet - how to expire notes or limit size to 50Gb 100GB example
2. BTC node - those running own hw or vm -> add disk incrase vm / docker size
3. running direct HW - mycase - 6 SATA ports and stack of 6 HDDs now - 2 are in LIVE lvm cluster of 1GB when it gets full i attach new HDD expand the cluster.
Sure, but Twitter is adding 12 terabytes of txt a day.
That’s 4380 terabytes a year. Not horrible, a storage center for that would cost 127k to build. But that’s for just a year. Have to add that every year (exponentially).
I guess that wouldn’t be to difficult to pay then monetize through paid access or donations? Ads?
This doesn’t include the cost to store and energy to run either.
everyone should nostr relay based what they can afford 10gb 100gb 1TB - Q how to set expiry or limit of db size
But they’re all storing the same info. The same threads…
no - all relays not storing all data. still learning more...
Yeah, going to be wild once this is figured out. I believe in censorship for crimes against humanity that we call all agree on. It’s the Truth that shouldn’t be censored.
How do we keep out the bad and let in the light on a massive scale.
I appreciate the back and fourth ⚡️

“Nostr's gossip protocol is too naive to scale. Relays will become either too big to run cheaply, or they will lack the reach to be useful to end-users. If relays can mirror content more selectively, and along natural borders in the social graph, it will help to shape the network topology to allow small relays to host only content relevant to its users.”
Ah. Interesting concept. Relays can be “theme” based. Taylor swift relay, Kanye Relay, F1 relay, blah blah blah. Ad infintium.
That link says txt alone is only 2 terabytes a year. Much easier and cheaper to store. Particularly if there are only a few topics your relay stores.
So, relays will go from general to very specific.
some data need to purged nobody keep all data for ever
- criteria to purge is only Q
I’m coming to the conclusion that massive centralization is ok, with one caveat: the decentralized portion can’t be shut down.
Though. I don’t see how that works. Massive relays: ISP’s, FB’s, Twitters, etc will all censor their platform. As they should. The amount of sick shi* that gets put into the world is frightening.
How do we limit the verifiably bad: Child Porn, Murder, Torture, Revenge Porn, etc and allow the good: “conspiracy theories,” and “thought crimes”.
