I have a relay already, I wish my relay implementation just came with http file uploads/downloads, no reason to be websockets only? 🤔

It's not exactly part of nostr/nips but it's an obvious adjacent function we need?

Or am I regarded

at a certain scale you probably don’t want your relay to be ingesting big ass jpegs and should split the two apart, but in general I agree this would be great.

also there is a new nips.be/96 for an HTTP file server

I feel like my personal relay that only serves my notes could very easily also serve my images from nginx or something? 🤔

yup. probably return a url from the file upload with a different host e.g. https://images.relay.* so you can move the static fileserver to another box/cdn if needed.

checkout nips.be/96 about file storage
