Ok, I get that the relays are storing the messages. But does each relay store the same message, so if relay A goes down my client can fetch the message from relay B?
Nice insight. Thanks 👍🏻
Bookmarked!
SHOWING TO MY INLAWS THANK YOU FOR BRINGING TO TOP OF FEED AGAIN

Awesome signal... adds great value to this platform. That was the best nostr overview I've seen. Will share with others. Continued thanks for all you do... you are a BTC Legend!
