Thread - Nostr Hypermedia

Truth. What are some alternatives that people can use that work at scale? Numeric IPs also suck, but may still be less confiscatable than DNS. CIDs? E.g IPFS? The app could check for a local gateway and fall back to a list of public gateways. Namecoin?

I like blossom's approach. https://github.com/hzrd149/blossom/blob/user-server-list/buds/03.md Could do the same with nip96. IPFS would work as well but I prefer http unless the file is extremely popular

nothing, Nostr is already immune to DNS failures even though it assumes DNS works most of the time

Two of my relays require DNS, and essentially all the shared images and videos I see. Nostr itself can work without DNS (as long as Tor is up, for my Onion relays), but man, think of the memes? The memes must flow. And whoever controls the memes, controls the universe.
