This was an interesting read, though a bit over my head. You're proposing a few relays that clients auto-connect their users to which pull a list of other relays to "subscribe" users to?

I was thinking something similar. And turning the outbox model interface into a DID document is a challenge. Wouldn't it be enough to simply build a dedicated relay as a "gateway" to the DID side?

I'll elaborate in more details on a future post, the general idea is to rely on the Relay List event to get Profile and other data of all individual accounts. As long as the Relay List is discovered, the user's profile will be found on those relays. No need to spread profile, following list and other events everywhere. To be able to "bootstrap" any profile, we could have a few relays that holds these lists and nothing more. It will be similar to the DID (Decentralized Identifier) resolves. My suggestion does not involve DID at all, my DID Resolver that I implemented was simply utilizing my suggested pattern.
