 But if the client thinks the note could be in relay.nostr.band then the client should have tried to fetch from there already, no? 
 Sure.

You said “abnormal situation”. So in the case outbox (or lack of outbox) failed, what follows. 

How do you hint to the user what is the next step in this sherlock holmes work to find a note. Where do they look, where the app hasnt looked. 
 You don't, because if you knew you would do it yourself.

Unless you're lazy. In that case instead of writing code to do it you write English and tell the user to do it. 
 Designers how might we help guide users whose nostr app just failed to find a note?

 “It appears this note had other plans and showing up wasn’t one of them” 
 Yes, and besides the @fiatjaf type message, whats the next step? 
 >button< shut it all down, go bloom outside 
 Error messages for non-compatible features would be nice too.
This note includes a feed, it opens empty on Damus, has just the nostr:addr… on Primal.

 Nostur has a nice link back to Coracle. Great job @Fabian

 Thanks @elidy 

I think this points to handling unknown event kinds, and recommended app handler NIPs, which damus has yet to implement. 

Nice work @Fabian ! 
 Thanks @elidy and @elsat, this is indeed handling of unknown event kinds, I added this after @PABLOF7z suggested it in nostr:note16pgkeuxvkl3y8c7zgn9zvnn8w4xwqals9henwag5edez3gx8e9wqm33qep

More clients should implement this, its one of the few ways we leverage the current kind-1 network effect to grow the Other Stuff 
 I just realized that Nostrudel has this thing already and it's pretty cool. I wonder what you think about Nostrudel since it surely looks like a big developer toolbox with a million options, but I like it. 
 it's for sure the most advanced client 
 I havent used nostrudel enough to reach this unhappy path of not finding a note.

Can you share a screenshot of what happens on nostrudel in this case?

Personally I nerd out on all the things on nostrudel. Probably its great for many nostr folks today who appreciate all the experimentation.
