What happens if the top 5 relays on this list go down?
Discussion
Nothing happened when damus delete everything
I've got my notes backed up, can republish to whatever takes their place
You don't own your data if you don't have a local backup of your events.
Not your relay, not your events.
What’s the best tool to keep a backup
strfry imo, you can sync your events from any relay easily. It'd be nice if there was a nice UI to make it more accessible tho
You could also try https://nostrsync.live/
It’s perhaps not the most straight forward method but we also have https://cellar.nostr.wine
You can import your notes from our aggregator to Cellar and then export personal backups anytime on the site.
We should bake backup function into clients
If I lost old notes it would not bother me. As long as there are other relays to keep things going I’m ok.
The nostrocalypse!
That nobody cares about, apparently. Because consensus algorithms are shitcoins, right? right?
It would be a really good test of which clients where censorship resistant
The next 5 become the new top 5
we'll be okay
For my understanding whatever's on there and not on any other relay the data gets lost
We should coordinate a stresstest
It probably means AWS is down 🤣
notes will be viewed less and get less interaction for a while. then if everybody starts adding other relays, things will go back to normal maybe in a week?
nostr:npub1v0lxxxxutpvrelsksy8cdhgfux9l6a42hsj2qzquu2zk7vc9qnkszrqj49 The ability to write content will be affected way more than the ability to read content, thanks to NIP-65 regarding the latter.
This is why the write-side should aim to mitigate this by tracking uptime with a tool like nostr.watch, and intelligently rotating a users write-relays when some go down.
How does a Bitcoin Full node do this? Somehow it always finds nodes.
There are seed nodes but after that peer lists are shared between nodes
I wish there was away to also be your own #nostr relay on mobile (iOS, Android) platforms, maybe by utilising WASM, like @Mnostr:npub1mutnyacc9uc4t5mmxvpprwsauj5p2qxq95v4a9j0jxl8wnkfvuyque23vgoes for ₿/LN.
I think about this a lot
Nostr ded 🐶🐾😭
Anyone knows what’s going on with Eden.nostr.land? I thought it was a paid relay.
Nuke it 😂
Add more relays preemptively. I mean, I don't care about backups, delete my notes please. But I do like being online.
I just removed the 3 of the top 5 you have here. Already didn’t have Damus and snort so I’ll let you know but my guess is I won’t notice.
