Nostr Web Client

Relays should only store text/links imo.

The moment you start adding pictures/videos, relay operators will require much more sophisticated censorship tools, whether they want them or not, creating a complete mess.

Not to mention the increased cost/burden it will place on hosting decent relays, leading to centralization.

Agree. Is this being currently discussed somewhere? I thought the only required NIP to call something Nostr was NIP 01, so not sure I follow

So there’s an explicit NIP about it https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/pull/345/files?short_path=319c9bc#diff-319c9bcebb9aa1a6bb2187a77604e2cb409af365a9f504e6d38f01627b6810d4

There’s also attempts to do it without needing a NIP like hornetstorage.com

But it’s been a question ever since people built ways to upload images and embed them in notes (like Nostr.build)
