I don't like Cloudflare for centralization part first of all.
I didn't intend to mark it a bad approach, I mean that entire Nostr philosophy is built upon different approach.
AFAIK the latest block are much more heavier to compute than very old blocks, so bandwidth is not a bottleneck in the most cases. Am I right?
As for federation concept, I think it is what Mastodon currently. Doing it in Nostr would make it just a Mastodon 2.0
But wasn't outbox model ought to solve this issue?
No, I haven't missed it. Paid relay nostr.wine filtered it pretty awesome.
No, I didn't run a relay. Joined in the middle of this summer, I am pretty newbie to nostr if you ask me.
Why are you so pessimistic by the way?
Yes, it is somewhat frustrating, I agree with you on that part. The saddest thing is that to use Lightning you are enforced to HODL some sats, hence you must have them beforehand you can start accepting(!) sats.
Having routing makes things more complicated because it introduces more difficulty in terms of "reachability" of payments.
Unfortunately, this is pretty far from what anyone can install and configure in several clicks.
Anyway, I do not have any idea how Lightning could've been done different without introducing another tradeoffs.
As was already mentioned, on-chain transactions are pretty expensive and thus have some limitations on outputs. Another significant issue with on-chain making it unsuitable for zaps - confirmation takes a lot of time. Lightning on the other hand allows you to transfer small payments pretty fast.
Maybe lightning is not an ideal scaling solution, it is pretty interesting thing to play with.

As for #Amethyst's private bookmarks, they seem to be stored in application memory. They might be stored to a local relay if it is configured, but I've never checked that.
is it just assumed that Nostr Bookmarks are wonky / don't work across apps, or am I doing something wrong?
For instance, things I bookmark in nostr:npub12vkcxr0luzwp8e673v29eqjhrr7p9vqq8asav85swaepclllj09sylpugg web app do not seem to be available in nostr:npub1yzvxlwp7wawed5vgefwfmugvumtp8c8t0etk3g8sky4n0ndvyxesnxrf8q iPhone app, and the app seems to not have an existing Bookmarks list.
#asknostr
Bookmarks implemented differently. In #Amethyst there are private and public bookmarks, where public ones are actually a list. This list can be viewed using #Nostrudel, however their bookmarks are implemented differently as well (unsure how, "bookmarks" tab never worked for me, only "lists" did)
Speculations are getting more and more popular as #Bitcoin price grow.
I think Dockerized setup is one of the best options for Ubuntu: https://github.com/sethforprivacy/simple-monerod-docker
