Can you expand on why IPFS doesn’t work or point me to an article where I can understand its issues?
I wasn’t thinking of anything as ambitious as replacing Nostr relays, clients or Blossom servers. Just sharing events and blossom vlobs as a signed torrent with an "update URL", allowing both clients and relays to sync, seed, list or navigate my stuff to your heart’s content. Relays would still be there to serve all of this over WebSockets, and Blossom would still be there to serve media over HTTP, etc. In other words, I’m not thinking of throwing away the existing protocol and sending Nostr back to day zero, just checking if we can't solve sync, specially between relays, in an easier and likely more efficient way.
