Grabted i’m retarded, but i don’t get why big relays don’t just “prune” old data to trim costs.

This is mostly shitposts we’re talking about, not an electronic peer-to-peer electronic cash system!

I wouldn’t cry about my liotta or even a very deep and profound note from 6 months ago being ded 🤷‍♂️

I think a lot of them do

Oh. Well maybe they could even more 😅

I’d way rather have a big relay serving data from just the past few days than nothing at all

It’s also good from liability standpoint for the relay owner to just wipe everything every few days 😂

Makes sense to me!

But they might wipe nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m one word notes. All posterity would be lost.

Yes.

it's inappropriate to be able to delete ad hoc as a concierge or ai agent but not as a user. and saying there is no deleting on nostr is inaccurate because of that.

Higher likelihood of someone not digging up some drunken shitpost to use against you too! Ah damn…

Second that. Could care less if my tardy takes are preserved for future gens.

Yeah I think some operators do that. There was never a guarantee of data permanence. There are so many options now if people do want to preserve data (premium relays, multiple relays can diversify where the data lives, self hosted relay being the most reliable option).

There may be some important posts that may be preserved but yeah majority of “in the moment” stuff.

Steven! Hue see the aliens??

Whattttt? Why not, Steven

I guess bc i don’t read news and deleted Xitter and was surely Working™️ v hard
