Sad news but it will occur more than we think 🥲
Could be nice to have a script to download all our notes from relay and import it to another Relay (our or not).
Discussion
Y a plus qu'à créer le script 🤭
J'ai commencé la formation plebdev c'est pas si easy que ça de dev sur du Nostr pour les non initiés au dev 😅 mais tout a fait faisable si on est motivés. Passer par le Relay Strfry simplifie beaucoup les choses car il permet d'export import les notes built-in. Et bien moins lourd à gérer que la machine à gaz nostream 🥲 (qui fonctionne très bien au demeurant en free/paid ⚡)
Shouldn't this be the responsibility of nostr clients? Like having a button on your profile screen called "Broadcast all", just like for example Damus has the "Broadcast" button on a single note.
I suppose the relay has no responsability regarding your notes excepting if it's a paid relay like in this case. They are doing things well to refund people and helping Nostriches to export their notes. People need to understand that if they want to backup their notes undefinitely they need to push notes to their own relay. We need more ansible playbook and docker containers to help people to deploy their own relay for few bucks a month ⚡
Btw if anyone is looking for how to self host Strfry ⚡

I agree with you that the best way to ensure your own notes preservation is to self host, but you do realize that the average Joe will never do that, right? So we need a good enough fallback solution for the masses.
Yes you're right. Maybe something new like a script which backup notes into flat files on some cloud encrypted storage could be a solution for paid relay. People still won't know how to run a relay but will be capable of importing files through a relay UI that allow to import events. Something like that 😅
A service does exist to back all of your Nostr notes and events. What doesn't exist is a similar service to broadcast them all to another relay.
🤔🤔
you going to build the broadcast service to compliment https://nostr-backup.pages.dev
Oops. I forgot about a service that does this already. We have too many 🤣🤣🤣
You can manually obtain a copy of your data, which you can restore anytime to any relay. Alternatively, you can sign up for my auto backup service, which takes weekly backups. Additionally, you will receive some free storage on Proton Storage for your data.
