This video isn’t convincing me at 100%. I worry about the storage capacity of the network. We know social medias generate a shit ton of data. I get the horizontal scaling but this is gonna take a lot of relays. It’s also gonna require clients to be capable of connecting and holding to a lot of relays simultaneously.
Some options I’ve heard is too use Archive Nodes which I think is a great idea.
Public relays don't need to keep everything forever. Anything worth keeping will be stored on Personal or Archive relays.
Agreed. But it can be perceived as a “downgrade” from the current crooked social medias that allow me to scroll back as far as I need.
I sort of agree. Hopefully there will be some incentive for archive relays or something
I hope so yeah. Many people dismiss this too quickly as you can see in the comments
It doesn’t need to be stored forever … you can just back up your notes and wipe relays periodically
So thats something to note and anticipate. Current social medias (despite being crooked) allow me to scroll back as far as I want to.
Make your own backup and scroll it as far back as you like 👍
