I agree that the currently altruistic relays aren't sustainable, they won't be able to store all the data for everyone for free with growing userbase. However I don't think nostr is doomed. But I think the end game has to be some kind of payed model if you wan't all your social history to be stored. Or all users storing their own data, acting as "mini relays", though I don't know if this is technically feasible.

What do you think?

But…

It is foolish how he thought Telegram could indefinitely operate a network without default E2E encryption and not play ball with regimes.

I see the same sort of presumption from Nostr devs/proponents ignoring the core architectural problem of needing relays.

Probably an unpopular opinion but it has to be said. Relays will be the death of Nostr but it’s not too late to fix it. The protocol is still in its infancy.
