Im a fan of blossom too. Though conent addressable files on servers is not a new idea. One slight issue is that it pollutes the name space, because not every storage provider wants to, or can, put files in the root of public_html. I dont think it's a good idea to distribute blobs via relays, because they are too big. Better to use references, imho.
In the current spec those blobs are not stored on relays perse right? I'm running a Blossom mediaserver instance which is not a Nostr relay. Just to be clear, with distribution I didn't meant the blobs has to be stored on relays. I agree that's a bad idea for many reasons. With the distribution I mean the the transmitting / advertising part of Nostr events (kind 10063) referencing the servers where your blobs are stored :)
Gotcha. Yes that's fine. I'd possibly think of that as discovery. Sorry for the confusion. All good.
Semantics / naming things are always a struggle for me 😄 I also could name it syndicating / replicating 🤔
