Would be nice if there was a way to quickly and easily tell which relays are which…
Telephone pole = ephemeral, chaotic, maybe proof of work to post?, low trust
Shopfront Window = pay per post or ad-supported, agreed upon lifespan, semi-trusted
Church / University bulletin board = whitelist membership based, high trust
If keychat (npub1h0u…rwx8) has the mail metaphor, regular Nostr posting should embrace the telephone pole metaphor.
You’re just putting up your flyer in various places.
- telephone pole (public)
- storefront window (private)
- church billboard (non profit)
It accurately captures the reality of what is happening to your data. Each location can take down your flyer whenever it wants. Or it could keep it up well after you need them to.
