i like the idea of dht + gossip as a layer for nodes that are trying to find specific ids after the source relay is down. p2p for eventual consistency...

How much do you spend running the Damus relay every month? Is it a burdensome expense? Does it really cost millions to run one of the largest network nodes? Also a huge privacy concern is a total lack of message expiry. Combined with the lack of perfect forward secrecy, it’s an extreme hazard. There should be a standard default expiry time on DMs and then nodes don’t have to store them indefinitely.
