for anyone coming across this brainrot thread, know that this is a half truth. because right now, sure, most relays store events but it is mentioned in the protocol specs that relays should be dumb aka only relaying events and never storing them. therefore traditional cloud/social media legal and moderation requirements may not apply.

It doesnt matter who stores the data, you still need central points of failure, and thus a solution for including servers and indexers in the design.

exactly, that's the whole point, you don't have a single point of failure, instead you have multiple independent relays where your events could be broadcasted.

the more relays you post to, the lower the chances of your content being censored everywhere become.
