Do we have a massive blind spot?
Open Question to the Nostr community.
Would Nostr still work if DNS was down or DDoS'd?
Maybe putting IPs and not hostnames in the .well-known/nostr.json i.e. NIP 05. This might allow clients to build up/discover IP identified relays of those we interact with.if wss is required, then most web server's aren't set up to serve a cert with the default site.Alternative might be to set up a local-net DNS caching server that would function fine should upstream servers become unavailable(and then config your systems to use that one as primary).
I think any reliance on any centralized service(even highly redundant and delegated) should be avoided to have the most robust Nostr net.
Your thoughts are welcome.
