 i can speculate that they open long running subscriptions to all the relays and feed them into a giant fucking database

i literally just wrote a "firehose" thing using fiatjaf's go-nostr relay pool library a couple days ago - just set the kinds in the filter and out they come

i'm working on a multi-protocol aggregator and this is how the garbage flows from Bluesky firehoses too, nostr just doesn't have a special stupid shitcoin dev name for it 
 Wrong, we don't have a huge database, we fetch events at request time and cache them for some days at most. 
 @BITKARROT when you figure it out, can you add your app name, and also your learnings here:

 yes, absolutely!  I would  like to have the possibility of getting my deleted note off of njump.me if  @fiatjaf is willing. 

this whole thread was about experimenting with deleting events and all events were deleted off of relays except njump
