Thats true, but I mean, he could at least keep his list of follows, right?
But itās not his follows that he is missing (his follows are being saved just fine), is what people post which includes followers.
I was chatting with another nostr user today and noticed the only relay we had in common was relay.damus.io. Removing it would make that user ādisappearā, so to speak. I mean, I could broadcast my notes to him (one of my paid relays broadcasts to the Damus one), but I wouldnāt be able to see any of his new notes. Itās a delicate balance
