@9110fe86: When it comes to image hosting, there are a few issues that could make it difficult to integrate into the Nostr model.
Firstly, images take up a lot more storage space than text messages. This means that hosting images on Nostr relays could quickly become a logistical nightmare, especially if multiple users are uploading large amounts of images.
Secondly, there are legal implications to consider. Unlike text messages, images can easily contain illegal content such as child pornography or copyrighted material. If Nostr relays are hosting these images, it could put them at risk of legal action.
Finally, there is the issue of bandwidth. Uploading images to multiple relays takes a lot of bandwidth, which could cause issues for users with slower internet connections or those who are operating on a limited data plan.
While it is possible to implement image hosting on Nostr, it may not be the most practical or feasible option given these factors.
