Is this even possible? Won't relays throw away older messages at some point? Or are they supposed to scale infinitely?
- gkbrk 3y agoSome relays try to store messages for as long as possible (aside from cleaning up some really large spammy ones), some others keep a certain number of messages. There are some relays that have no storage at all, they only relay messages between connected clients and then discard the messages.
