My prediction on how different sized relays will play out:
mega relay = hot cache, short term storage for reliable realtime note retrieval, optimal for microblogging use cases. No guarantees for longterm storage.
edge relays = long term storage, private notes, note backups. Personal nodes. “Right to be forgotten” nodes. Custom use cases and products. Small communities.
Outbox/autopilot moves us from the niche microblogging usecase to a true large-scale nostr web.

quoting note1m6e…5ea6main thing to note is that I see mega relays as a short term/ hot cache, notes will not be there forever. the edge relays are important for archival stuff and long term storage.
