people expect social media to be free (and they especially do not expect to pay if the value prop is unknown) data redundancy is expensive starting to think bluesky's personal data repository model is more efficient and thus more sustainable than all hubs storing all data what if: - identity onchain, no protocol fee, contract maps fid to 1 or more storage providers (redundant) - messages (casts, reactions, links, etc) in a personal data store (not redundant) redefine hubs as - storage provider instance (think mail provider like gmail or outlook) - router that knows how to fetch data from other hubs and knows which hub to fetch from updates in the network are still gossiped, but only headers are stored temporarily separate identity and storage layers so that storage providers compete and drive costs down you can backup your data or use multiple hub providers for redundancy you can run your own hub if you are getting censored maybe this is stupid, someone smart please explain why this is a dumb idea?

seems like hubs used to work this way until the v2 spec was released https://github.com/farcasterxyz/protocol/tree/cb10c17c2092186ccc05b8826886414942ab52dc?tab=readme-ov-file#24-hubs

@v probably has thoughts. Before my time, but I think this is basically how hubs v1 worked.

How about adding the concept of archive nodes, so that only the most recent n days is synced and the rest is cold, if you scroll back more than a month you hit a little latency but it's still all there

the latency/compute of joining data across all these edge repositories is where i’m stuck…the hub model at least makes all data local to the app dev

This has been my thesis for decentralized tech in general: p2p for free, replicas for pay. Similar to how IPFS is free, but Pinata is a paid product. BitTorrent is free, but seedboxes are paid.
