Nostr client for your most valuable information.
Most current clients focus on real-time data, where the value of the data inherently time-decays.
Highlighter is the opposite; most likely data saved through Highlighter will tend to increase in value; like a good wine.
Is the highlighted data (and its context) saved/stored locally? I'm still trying to wrap my head around whether data on relays can ever be expected to persist.
How to you foresee nostr ever dealing with archival data, or will it ever?🙏😁
ZERO LOCAL DATA ON ANY OF MY CLIENTS
Always.
Any client persisting local data (other than a cache, obviously) is an attack on nostr and likely just portraying itself as a nostr client as a marketing gimmick.
May I ask why persisting local content around is an attack on Nostr?
In addition to the NO-LOCAL-STATE rant:
Data archival doesn't (although it could and, to an extent, likely, will) need to be solved GLOBALLY.
Like most problems in life, data archival needs to be solved at the margins:
i.e. I don't care about the GLOBAL availability of all data; I care about MY segment of the data I'm interested in (or might be interested in, which is an interesting problem), and at the margin I am the one who will make sure that the data I stored in nostr is sufficiently persisted.
These are all relatively simple problems to solve that, to an extent are already solved, and, I expect, will be fully solved by multiple infrastructure offerings, given how cheap storage is.
TL;DR:
We don't need to solve data archival GLOBALLY by one or two providers; individual users need to be solve data archival MARGINALLY, for the data they care about. (this will, obviously, be fully managed for 99% users)
