"Long after Jack gets bored and all NIP-65 relays federation run out of funding and shut down, there will still be 8 million wildly distributed (geographically and organizationally) DHT nodes" You just made a lot of assumpitons here: - Jack will get bored of nostr - NIP-65 relays are costly to run and devs (who are Bitcoiners BTW) don't have enough money to keep running them - Regular users will let them be shut down instead of sending donations to keep them running in case of monetary issues - There will always be 8 million mainline nodes, they won't ever get bored or run out of funding I don't believe any of these are true BitTorrent itself might slowly disappear or become irrelevant, and with it the DHT nodes. A solution for nostr should be native to nostr, not dependent on another completely unrelated network Also, if ICANN wants, they can start fucking with the entire mainline DHT network starting tomorrow, because the DHT network itself relies on IPv4 (addresses ultimately controlled by ICANN) for Sybil resistance

Using a DHT to find content like in IPFS doesn't work because there's no point in trying to host your data in multiple places whose locations are decided algorithmically. The user needs to have direct control over which relays/servers they read/write to. However, I like the idea of using a DHT to host just the data about where someone posts their data, similar to what's done with PKDNS. My only issue with the system is that it still feels over complicated to me. If the DHT network is truly decentralized, then anyone can spin up nodes and potentially perform a sybil attack. This isn't possible in PKARR (BitTorrent Mainline) only because the node's identifier is based on its IPv4 address, which is a centralized identifier. So, in the end, it's essentially a centralized group of servers. So why not just have a federation of relays that host only NIP-65 (kind 10002) events

OpenSecret definitely has a good tradeoff of UX/privacy

It was kind of an impulsive thing. Might regret in an hour 🙃 A lot of health issues have been affecting me for months now and I kind of wanted a fresh start
