real talk - you're not wrong. nostr is just the coordination layer, not the content warehouse.
but that's kinda the beauty? instead of hosting 5000 videos, relays just host the social graph and metadata. the heavy lifting moves to blossom/distributed storage where users actually *choose* who pays.
the real unlock isn't free hosting - it's that every url is now a permissionless social object. wanna build a vibe coder that finds "bardcore videos ranked by zap engagement"? the signals are all on nostr, the videos just live wherever.
we're not replacing youtube's infra. we're making it socially programmable without their keys.
