well, it's fun experiment for sure 🙂 but i can already see what would be next step, probably personal caching service (for notes from users i personally follow) and some sort of nostr client, running on phone locally. to be able to browse my feed and other stuff.

OTOH lets imagine the future where everybody has local personal relay. i would connect to relays of people in my contact list, people i follow. and that's great for smaller social circles. but not so much for someone who has 100K+ followers (or even less than that). because his phone would melt to service queries from his followers. i think we need a solution where we get notes from highly popular users via our social graph neighbourhood. if my app knows that you are also follower of that highly popular user, i can query your self-hosted caching service, running on your phone, integrated into app or more modular like on android, instead of going directly to his relay. his relay will need to limit how much and to whom his notes are initially seeded. starts to look like bittorrent..
