Kind of wish the gossip/outbox model would just be implemented by the clients and not paid relays. If I had a subscription to my client (like for damus it would be purple), it would be nice if we could just use or slightly raise that one cost to include the gossip model across all relays. I personally, hate having multiple subscription fees to keep track of and a one-stop-shop is more ideal in my opinion.

Y'all are paying for this?

Not yet, but the relay thing is ending up less centralized than expected because everyone just ends up on the same big relays. It’s gonna take a lot of time and resources to implement so I’m expecting a cost.

Everyone should just run a relay. You don't have to a be a pro, and it falls of someday... So what, that's why you post to many relays

Yes. I want to see offered bundles of

- filtered aggregating and broadcast relays

- file upload servers for static files and blobs with range request support and robust auth controls (one of my former areas of expertise)

- archival relays to hold all my notes, and any i interacted or others me with query support

- full text search servers of content

- reminder services (on this day last year, 5 years ago, etc this note ...)

- text chat and community servers

And better file-compressing in-app ✅

Yep. All good ideas. So much to build... It's crazy that everyone is just focusing on kind1 inbox/outbox models though. There will be many models for other types of social apps. Probably each NIP will end up with it's own relay model.

Agree with all those. The clients should abstract all kinds of payments.

I think in terms of priorities to build, I wish there was a better way for us to reach social consensus, at least to some extent. Right now we seem to have very little.

Why does nostr:npub1ymt2j3n8tesrlr0yhaheem6yyqmmwrr7actslurw6annls6vnrcslapxnz understand Nostr relays more than me

Is this that #v4v shit people keep talking about?

Yes!

Damn this bloated JSON nipple protocol with support for Bitcoin via The Lighting Network is pretty cool. Thanks everyone for being here with me in this moment. Please consider eating plants today. Meat is murder.

I'm eating plants with my meat. Does that count?

I celebrate all forms of plant digestion 🌎

I guess so
