Nostr Web Client

Fair enough. But if relays store all historical data then it’s going to be a pain to be a mega relay with a SQLite based backend. SQLite isn’t exactly built for scale.

I figure it can scale "big enough" for a decent sized community to use, and hopefully will be more than usable on a $5/month tiny VPS. But I'm also eager for first-hand knowledge of how far SQLite /can/ scale.

Ok, good to know. I'm shopping for options what to put on my beefy server (8vCPU, 32GB RAM) and assumed sqlite might not be the solution. On the other hand, all nostr events still fit comfortably into RAM :D

I’m running it on a tiny ~$6/month VPS and it works great. Thank you!!

But what are you doing with it? If it's one of the big, Astral default relays: hat off! If it's your backup of everything, yeah, not so interesting.
