mikedilger on Nostr: purplepag.es is not the center of the universe. All popular and semi-popular relays ...
purplepag.es is not the center of the universe. All popular and semi-popular relays should be used for writing your kind 10002 event (could be hundreds of relays). And several should be used for reading from... if those several are popular and people are writing everywhere it should work. So I should be able to read from einundzwanzig or nos.lol or relay.damus.io, or any other popular relay and find everybody's 10002 events. And if those fall down I can read from whatever becomes popular in the future. So nothing is an achilles heel. Nobody should be hard coding relays for this purpose.
That being said, the "spray it everywhere" solution was intended as a stopgap for the moment, and the DHT solution does appeal to me.
