As others have suggested, I share the instinct that relays are going to struggle to scale if Nostr really takes off and there is no filtering added to the protocol. But maybe I'm dumb and I'm missing something. I'm very open to the idea that I'm missing something.

Without something like bloom filters, the bandwidth demands to mobile devices will also balloon, with the vast majority of data they're receiving from the relay, irrelevant to the client and just getting dropped. But once again, maybe I'm missing something.
