how is nostr cool? i am going to publish this note to my personal relay ONLY. however, thanks to several clients that have implemented the gossip model, many users will see this note even though it doesn't exist on the relays that they use. then, once they start interacting with it, the note will then be rebroadcasted to their relays, propagating my note around the nostr protocol, decentralizing my originally centralized content. 😲
So you did exactly what original nostr idea was trying to avoid: full replication of every note on every relay?

Yes.
Does this prohibit the possibility of being able to delete (or edit) notes on Nostr in the foreseeable future. Also won't relays need vast amounts of storage to hold copies of every post on Nostr. Rather like a blockchain
